A bibliographic collection dedicated to Joan Miró’s sculptural and ceramic work, comprising key publications on two essential areas of the artist’s creative maturity. The volumes include catalogs dedicated to sculpture, his collaboration with Artigas, and ceramics—disciplines in which Miró translated his universe of signs, biomorphic figures, and primary colors into three-dimensional space and material form.

Ceramics and sculpture played a decisive role in Miró’s evolution, especially following his collaboration with Josep Llorens Artigas, with whom he created murals, ceramic pieces, and works of great formal freedom. In contrast to the pictorial medium, these works allowed the artist to explore the physicality of the object, its volumetric presence, and the dialogue between surface, gesture, and material.

Joan Miró was one of the leading figures in 20th-century art. Trained in Barcelona and associated with the Parisian avant-garde since the 1920s, he developed his own artistic language based on the sign, color, formal refinement, and intense poetic freedom. His work is represented in institutions such as the Fundació Joan Miró in Barcelona, the Fundació Pilar i Joan Miró in Palma, MoMA in New York, the Centre Pompidou in Paris, and the Tate in London.
