Title: Starscene
Artist: Miro, Joan (Barcelona, 1893 - Palma de Mallorca, 1983)
Date: c. 1970
Medium: Original Lithograph
Note: Joan Miro: One of the most creative artists of the twentieth century, Joan Miro is as highly regarded for his lithographic art as for his paintings and sculpture. After the conclusion of World War One, Joan Miro traveled to Paris where he first was influenced by Cubism. Yet his infatuation with Cubism was short lived and Miro quickly became a leading exponent of both Dadaism and the Surrealist movement.
  Most of Joan Miro's early masterworks are derived from either dreams or hallucinations -- the guiding elements of Surrealism. In an 1948 interview, however, he related, "Nowadays I rarely start a picture from a hallucination. What is most interesting to me today is the material I am working with. It supplies the shock which suggests the form just as cracks in the wall suggested shapes to Leonardo." * One must therefore learn to read and interpret Joan Miro almost as if one were studying the symbolic meanings of hieroglyphics. Of all the giants of modern art, Miro is surely the great delineator of our collective unconscious. (H. J. Wechsler, Great Prints & Printmakers, New York, Leon Amiel, 1977, p. 225).
  During his career, Joan Miro created many original lithographs and etchings. Some were printed in small, hand-signed editions while others were created in large editions ranging from one to two thousand impressions, mostly for periodicals such as Verve and Derriere le Mirror. Starscene belongs to the latter category. Like the large majority of Miro's lithographic art, Starscene was probably printed by the famous Paris printer, Mourlot.
