The most complete collection of Joan Miró's works, gathered in a jewel of rationalism designed by Josep Lluís Sert.

The greatest works by the Catalan painter are brought together in this foundation, inaugurated in 1975 on Montjuïc hill. Housed in a rationalist building conceived and designed by Josep Lluís Sert, the foundation is home to the most complete collection of Joan Miró's work, comprising paintings, sculptures, engravings and drawings. The building is very open, multiplying materials while maintaining a simplicity that not only opens up brightly-lit spaces, but also highlights Miró's creations. These clean lines leave plenty of room for the painter's innovative research in all kinds of disciplines. From an immense collection of over 14,000 works, only a small selection are on display in the museum. The collections are organized around several thematic sections, from Miró's earliest youthful works in the village of Mont-roig to his creations of the 1940s-1970s, when he affirmed his taste for the imaginary and the simplification of subject matter. You can see some of the artist's masterpieces, such as Man and Woman in Front of a Pile of Excrement (1935) and Woman Dreaming of Escape (1945). Miró's superb sculptures are also on display on the museum's roof terrace, including the emblematic Caresse d'un oiseau (1967), made up of several assembled objects. In the rest of the rooms, the Foundation also organizes temporary exhibitions of contemporary art, while an experimental space is reserved for young artists (Espai 13).

Magnifique bâtiment moderne qui accueille les tableaux et statues de Miro. On aime ou pas Miro mais on ne reste pas insensible. Une belle visite pour moi.

Très belles expositions, il y en a pour tous les goûts. Le musée est aussi intéressant pour les grands que pour les petits car pas trop grand. Mes enfants ont adoré l'univers de Miro et surtout le carnet de jeux mis à leur disposition.

Located on Montjuic Hill, the Miro Museum is pleasant to visit because Miro is the Catalan artist to know just like Gaudi in architecture both challenging our imaginary. The view of the terrace on the city of Barcelona is an essential one.

Très belle exposition, ça change un peu des façons habituelles d’exposer : sculptures sur le toit terrasse. Très intéressant. A faire.
