Author and artist Roland Penrose, a friend of Miró’s for almost five decades, discusses Miró’s art through its many phases. Penrose also examines its major features—the birth of his signs and symbols; his series of anguished \u003ci\u003epeintures sauvages\u003c\/i\u003e in the 1930s; his lyrical, poetic gouaches; his monumental sculptures and ceramics; his unprecedented use of poetic titles; and his attachment to nature and the night. A brief epilogue by Eduardo de Benito, London correspondent of the Spanish art periodical \u003ci\u003eLápiz\u003c\/i\u003e, illustrates the developments of Miró’s last years. This new revised edition, now illustrated in color throughout, includes a foreword by Antony Penrose, Roland’s son, outlining the relationship between his father and the artist, as well as updates to the bibliography.","brand":"None","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47115177066706,"sku":"9780500204795","price":28.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/indigo-pre-prod.myshopify.com\/products\/miro","provider":"Indigo Pre-Prod","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
