JOAN MIRO FOUNDATION


The Fundacio Joan Miro (Centre for Contemporary Art Studies) opened to the public in 1975 and has been a constant reference point in the city's cultural life ever since. It houses the permanent collection of works by Miro, an artist who was able to create his own poetic universe and experimented with different genres : painting, sculpture, ceramics, tapestries, graphic art, etc. The gleaming white building was designed by Miro's great friend, the architect Josep Lluis Sert, who created a structure with a markedly Mediterranean character.

THE BEAUTY OF FAILURE /THE FAILURE OF BEAUTY
Until 24th October
A joumey through great dreams, and the failure to make them come true. The exhibition shows the great utopias from the anarchism of the 19th century to the dreams at the end of the 1960s, contrasting them with the art of current generations which protects itself against failure by looking at individual and everyday situations.

WOMAN
Metamorphosis of modernity

A new generation of emancipated women gained access to the artistic scene causing a breakthrough in the existential attitude as well as the artistic methods used. The exhibition brings together works by
