Joan Miro


The Beautiful Bird Revealing the Unknown to a Pair of Lovers. The title seems inexplicable at first, but upon inspection of this surreal, child-like painting, you can almost see this unfold. This is a magical work from Spanish painter, Joan Miro, from his Constellation Collection. In it we see an example of "automatic drawing"- a thing surrealists did, where they just allowed themselves to draw random, meandering shit from their subconscious.
