Joan Miró Collection

⚠️ ATTENTION ⚠️ The Joan Miró Collection is currently included in Miró-Picasso exhibition. During this time, you can also visit Joan Miró and the script of things, a selection of works from the Joan Miró Collection.

The Fundació Joan Miró is a remarkable space created by Joan Miró himself with the idea of making art accessible to all.

The collection of paintings, drawings, sculptures and works on paper displayed at the Fundació is one of the most comprehensive selections of Miró’s oeuvre, offering a thorough overview of all the stages of his life and career.

A variety of spaces allow visitors to venture into an interdisciplinary exploration of the highly personal language and production of one of the most influential artists of the twentieth century. A series of overarching themes illustrate key concepts in Miró’s work and in the thinking of his times, while reflecting the artist’s desire to transcend conventional painting.

The paintings related to Surrealism and the works based on the Spanish Civil War are particularly noteworthy due to their artistic and poetic significance. Other important pieces include the large canvases Miró produced from the late seventies onwards, which are characterised by large fields of colour and free gesture. The Fundació also devotes a wing to the Kazumasa Katsuta collection, which allows visitors to explore a dialogue between East and West, highlighting the universality of Joan Miró’s work.

The works that currently form part of the Joan Miró collection, many were donated by the artist in 1975, while others were donations or long-term loans made by his wife Pilar Juncosa, Joan Prats, various members of the Miró family, Kazumasa Katsuta, and other public and private collections.
