Fundació Joan Miró
Miró's artistic career and the wide variety of techniques he used are widely represented by the more than 14,000 exhibits on display. 217 paintings, 178 sculptures, a variety of prints and textiles and over 8,000 drawings provide an in-depth understanding of the creative process of the Catalan genius. In addition to the works by Joan Miró, the Foundation also has a small collection of contemporary art consisting of gifts and loans from leading artists.
Over the years, the Joan Miró Foundation has become a major point of reference on the world art scene and offers Barcelona's visitors a wide range of contemporary art exhibitions, encompassing the avant-garde and the latest artistic trends. It also has a pioneering exhibition space, Espai 13, which stimulates research and experimentation among young artists.
