Miró / Portabella: Poetics and Transgression
SPAIN PALMA • Fundació Pilar i Joan Miró a Mallorca • Ongoing |
|
The common thread of the exhibition consists of Pere Portabella's short films about different aspects of Joan Miró's work, such as wrought iron (Miró la forja, 1973), tapestry (Miró tapis, 1973), ephemeral creative action (Miró l'altre, 1969), and the political commitment that both creators show through aesthetic rather than directly political rebellion (Miró Aidez l'Espagne, 1969).
Miró/Portabella. Poetics and Transgression establishes a dialogue between the filmmaker's short pieces and some of Miro's works that are featured in the films or others related to them, documentary or photographic contributions by the creators, concerning these themes. The show occupies all the Foundation's exhibition spaces and it is presented in the form of several installations.
More than one hundred works and documents have been gathered: 6 short films, 10 paintings, 14 bronze sculptures, 3 tapestries, 37 drawings, 4 notebooks, 7 signs and other documents, photographs and objects that exemplify the intense creative relationship between the two creators.
