.- The exhibition Miró, Gaudí, Gomis: The Magical Meaning of Art, co-organised with Fundació Joan Miró based on its collection, and curated by Teresa Montaner and Ester Ramos, highlights the creative affinities between Joan Miró and Antoni Gaudí, as well as the artists admiration for the architect through the photographs by Joaquim Gomis, first president of the Miró institution and a major promoter of Gaudís work.
The exhibition presents a selection of sculptures, ceramics and drawings by Joan Miró that enter into conversation with the photographs that Gomis took of Gaudís architecture, as well as an important series of etchings that, with the titles Sèrie Gaudí, Enrajolats and Gran rodona, Miró made in 1979 as a tribute to the architect.
