Miro Hardcover – 18 December 2021

I first encountered Miro's art on a holiday to Barcelona a few years ago.I visited the Joan Miro Foundation in Montjuic and was dazzled by the beauty of the paintings (and sculptures) on display in that impressive building. A print of one of his works adorns one of the walls of my home. I thought I would buy this book to find out more about Miro and have a pictorial record of his works. The book is excellent ; full of beautiful prints of Miro's most famous paintings and the text provides a short biography of the artist and the motivations behind his art. Miro's art still looks ultra modern today. I liked this Taschen Basic Art book and I would recommend it. I intend to buy more of them.

Great book lots of illustrations and a good biography and explanation of his work. If you only buy one book on Joan Miro, this is a great one to have.

A worthy addition to any bookshelf.

The author and others put too much emphasis on the intent of Miro in his paintings. I think they are enjoyable to look at without trying to understand what each and every color, figure and format meant.
