L’Aveugle Parmi Les Oiseaux 1978

Joan Miró made "L’Aveugle Parmi Les Oiseaux," with paint, line, and a whole lot of playful imagination. It's a world of symbols, kind of like a personal alphabet he invented just for himself and for us to interpret. The big black shape dominates. I imagine Miró, brush in hand, carefully placing that heavy form and wondering what it might mean. And what about that red circle with the green ring? Is it an eye? A target? A sun? Maybe it's all of those things at once! You can feel Miró’s hand moving, dancing across the surface, making these marks and shapes that feel both random and completely intentional. He’s pulling us into his dream world. It’s a conversation across time. I look at this, and I think: Yeah! That’s how it’s done. Let’s make something new!
