Description:
‘Picasso represents a complete revision of art in the West up until the present; he and Lautréamont were the great prophets of this bloodbath. I know that my work can represent the future, aligned with the great ancient civilisations and with a definitive sweeping aside of all that is transitory, and therefore secondary.’ Letter from Joan Miró to Pierre Matisse, Mont-roig, 3-09-1946

Miró-Picasso takes a variety of perspectives to approach the artistic affinities between Joan Miró and Pablo Picasso, two of the leading artists of the twentieth century, and does so against the backdrop of the friendship they shared over the course of fifty years.
