Joan Miró Sculptures

Exhibition at the Beelden aan Zee Museum, The Hague, 20 September 2024 - 2 March 2025

Joan Miró (1893 - 1983) is one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. The Catalan master broke artistic boundaries by fusing painting and poetry, and his surrealist representations are full of mysterious signs and symbols. This unbridled creativity also characterises Miró's sculptures.

This catalogue of the first exhibition devoted by a Dutch museum to Miró's three-dimensional work brings together 55 large- and small-format sculptures, including plaster models that have never before been exhibited in a museum. It highlights the artist's experiments with ceramics, his studies in plaster, his assemblages and his monumental public works, which represent his ongoing quest for new ideas, materials and techniques.
