Over one thousand letters and postcards sent by artist Joan Miró (a vast majority of which were unpublished until now) are being featured in the first volume of the Epistolari Català de Joan Miró (Joan Miró’s Catalan Letters).
Miró sent these letters to his relatives and childhood friends as well as art critics, artists, gallery owners, and journalists. They enable us to follow the course of Miró’s life from his early years as an artist, his departure for Paris, the strategies of the 1920s, the splendor of the 1930s, the cultural wilderness of the Franco years, and the desire to start again with renewed energy after the end of the Second World War.
