Shooting Star 1938

Joan Miró's 1938 "Shooting Star" is a prime example of his Surrealist style. The painting features biomorphic shapes and abstract figures set against a backdrop of vibrant colors and gestural marks. The central figure, a long-necked creature with outstretched arms, seems to float in a dreamlike landscape, while a shooting star streaks across the sky. The work's whimsical and dreamlike quality reflects Miró's exploration of the subconscious and his fascination with the interplay of color, form, and texture.
