Joan Miró i Ferrà (1893-1983). Spanish (Catalonian) painter and sculptor. His paintings are considered
surrealist. His approach attacks the traditional methodology (from the 1930s), which Miró considered bourgeois. He began making a living as an accountant, but quickly left behind the world of numbers and fully devoted himself to art. Gradually, he developed his symbolic language that he first used in the paintings
The Tilled Field (1924) and
Catalonia Landscape (1923). This language is used in most of his works. For example, he used the triangle shape to show the head, curves to show a moustache, and a rectangular shape to depict the trunk. As a surrealist, he often painted without a plan, with references to sexual symbols (for example, egg-like forms with penetrating wavy lines). As one of the first artists, he used auto painting. André Breton - the founder of
surrealism - eventually described him as the purest surrealist of us all and he is considered an influential painter of the 20th century, who influenced mainly American
expressionists (from the better known, for example
Rothko Pollock or Motherwell and Calder).
