Joan Miró’s Montroig embodies the artist’s roots, his profound connection to the land, and his affinity with the simplicity of everyday things. For Miró, Montroig was both a symbol and a reality, at once deeply personal and universal, and the point of departure for everything that followed.

Throughout his life, Miró remained loyal to Montroig and to its well-known family farm, returning there every summer as part of an almost mystical ritual. He was bound to the place by a deep, vital, physical and emotional connection. This attachment enabled Miró to become a paradigm of how an artist can achieve universality while remaining rooted in a world as specific and particular as that of Montroig.

His strength grew from the close ties that connected him to this land: family ties, but also the influence of the age-old folk traditions he encountered there, which played a key role in the development of both his work and his personality.

Miró’s long artistic trajectory has its point of departure in Montroig. It was here that, against his father’s wishes, he decided to devote himself fully to painting. In direct contact with the land, he learned to work like a farmer, developing an understanding that things emerge slowly through sustained hard work and care.

A series bearing the name of this place, which held such profound personal and artistic significance for Miró, is therefore particularly fitting.
