Customer Reviews

A great book for perceiving Miro

I am enjoying this book as my best. I bough it as a reminder of Miro's work and found an outstanding journey to his house Calamajor and visits to his workshop by a very sensitive author. The quality of the book is excellent (as all Taschen's). Most of the pictures are accompanied by some stories that help to understand the artworks. Excellent price for this beautiful art-book.

A great book about Miro

This book about Miro is presented in an interview format and is a wonderful representation of the artist's life, not only in the words but in the reproductions as well.
