Miro: Sculptor

YSP publication to accompany the Miró: Sculptor exhibition. The fully illustrated catalogue features texts by the artist’s grandson Emilio Fernández Miró, Pilar Ortega Chapel from the Successió Miró, poet and art critic Jacques Dupin and Peter Murray CBE. Exhibition photography by Jonty Wilde.

In collaboration with the artist’s foundations and family, YSP presented the first major UK exhibition of sculpture by Joan Miró, one of Europe’s most important 20th century artists. The exhibition described the extraordinary wealth of Miró’s sculpture, much of which was made in the second half of his life. With key works set in the landscape, the exhibition fulfils the artist’s desire that “sculpture must stand in the open air, in the middle of nature”.
