Joan Miró (1893–1983) was a Spanish Catalan painter, sculptor, and ceramicist whose imaginative, often surreal work left a profound mark on 20th-century art. Known for his vibrant colors, whimsical shapes, and dreamlike compositions, Miró developed a distinctive style that defied strict categorization, blending elements of Surrealism, Dadaism, and Catalan folk art. His works are known for a playful, almost childlike quality, yet they also carry layers of symbolic meaning, often influenced by Spanish politics, his Catalan heritage, and a deep fascination with the subconscious.
