As regards my means of expression, I try my hardest to achieve the maximum of clarity, power, and plastic aggressiveness; a physical sensation to begin with, followed up by an impact on the psyche. -- Miró
Miró's line recalls Picasso's in clarity and power; the Catalan's plastic aggressiveness led him, as it did his Andalusian friend, to bold, successful experiment and innovation in ceramics, sculpture and printmaking, especially lithography. The lithographic print medium suited and encouraged the artist's lifelong, often radical, obsession with stripping art to the marrow. The 40 plates reproduced here sample the pith of his lithographic production -- a series produced in 1944, full of the eerie images and droll distortion he had sought on canvas for decades.
