Contemplate the most complete artistic collection of Joan Miró, a world leader in surrealism.

Understand why the Mediterranean landscape was always Miró's elemental inspiration, because his works are a window to the Paris of the avant-garde and to the Europe of wars and post-wars.

At the Joan Miró Foundation you can take a tour of the author's entire work, starting with the first paintings with clear influence of French Impressionism, Fauvism and Cubism, such as "Ermita de Sant Joan d'Horta" or "Portrait of a vaileta", passing through the fully surrealist stage ("L'ampolla de vi") or his collages, such as "Homenatge a Prats".

Admire the surprising building designed by Josep Lluís Sert and located in the oasis of tranquility of Montjuic Park designed exclusively to house the works of this fantastic artist.

Enjoy the best views of the city from the Museum's terrace, with a large Mediterranean garden.

    Joan Miro Foundation

    Discover a world of surreal art at the Joan Miró museum in Barcelona. Enter the world of the famous Catalan artist Joan Miró and explore a treasure of surrealist, fauvist and expressionist masterpieces in a museum located in Parc de Montjüic. Explore an extensive collection of modern and contemporary painting and sculpture with up to 8,000 drawings, 217 paintings and 178 sculptures, as well as ceramics, textiles and graphic works. With a unique vision of the world, and thanks to his use of bold colors and organic shapes, Miró became one of the most influential figures in the world of Art. He is known for his paintings, sculptures, murals and ceramic works. Ernest Hemingway compared Miró's painting La Masía (which he bought) to James Joyce's Ulysses. Although he was not a writer, Joan Miró tried to explain how he worked with colors to express his ideas, “I try to use colors like words that form poems, like notes that form music.”
