Joan Miró was born on April 20th, 1893 in Montroig, Catalonia and grew up in Barcelona, the son of a goldsmith and watchmaker who abandoned a brief business career for art after a nervous breakdown. Though his early 1918 exhibition in Spain was widely ridiculed and deepened his depression, he moved to Paris and joined the Surrealist movement in 1924, developing a unique symbolic style. His international reputation grew through his representation by the Pierre Matisse Gallery in New York and his creation of politically charged murals during the Spanish Civil War. During World War II, his iconography shifted toward his now-famous motifs of women, birds, and the moon, which he explored across various media including painting and sculpture. He became a prolific printmaker post-war, collaborating on over a thousand lithographic editions while completing major public commissions like the Maeght Foundation garden. By the time of his death on December 25th, 1983, Miró was established as a titan of Modern art, with a legacy that remains highly influential in both aesthetic and psychological artistic discussions to this day.
