Inspired by them, Miro begins to develop his characteristic dream-painting style. A few years later, Miro met Andr\u00e9 Breton, the Dadaist who would later devote himself to lyrical surrealism. Together with Andr\u00e9 Breton, Andr\u00e9 Masson and Max Ernst they form a surrealist artist group in Paris.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There are three shapes that constantly haunt me: a red circle, the moon and a star&#8221; (Joan Miro). Pictures with enigmatic and sometimes ironic traits are characteristic of Joan Miro&#8217;s works. He uses animal figures (eg bird-man) and twisted, organic and geometric shapes. His pictures are also referred to as &#8220;cheerful naivety&#8221;.<br \/>Joan Miro called his paintings poetry. He also differed from the tenets of Surrealism in his way of working. He did not let his paintings arise spontaneously and free from accompanying considerations on the canvas, as many of the Surrealists made their own. On the contrary, Miro makes many preliminary studies of his paintings.<\/p>\n<p>In public space, for example, his ceramic walls adorn the UNESCO building in Paris and the Wilhelm Hack Museum in Ludwigshafen am Rhein; Monumental sculptures are set up in squares in Barcelona and Chicago, among others.<br \/><strong>1907<\/strong> Art Academy in Barcelona<\/p>\n<h4>Exhibitions (selection)<\/h4>\n<p><strong>1930<\/strong> First exhibition in the USA in the Valentine Gallery New York<br \/><strong>In 1933<\/strong> , large-format paintings were created from collages<br \/><strong>In 1934<\/strong> his so-called &#8220;wild period&#8221; began with pastels on velor<br \/><strong>1935-1938<\/strong> several international exhibitions of surrealist works<br \/><strong>In 1940<\/strong> he moved back to Paris, but left France for Spain when German troops invaded<br \/>From <strong>1940<\/strong> to <strong>1948<\/strong> he lived in Spain and created many sculptures, graphics, ceramics and murals during this time.<br \/><strong>In 1947<\/strong> he visited the USA for the first time and had several solo exhibitions there, the most important being a retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in New York<br \/><strong>In 1952<\/strong> his &#8220;free, powerful style&#8221; began<br \/><strong>In 1954<\/strong> his works were shown for the first time in Germany in an exhibition in Krefeld<br \/><strong>In 1954<\/strong> he received the Grand Prize for Graphics in Venice<br \/><strong>In 1956<\/strong> he moved to Mallorca, where he also set up a large studio<br \/><strong>In 1958<\/strong> he received the Guggenheim Award<br \/><strong>In 1960<\/strong> his new abstract style begins<br \/><strong>In 1966<\/strong> , monumental bronze statues by Mir\u00f3 were created for the first time<br \/><strong>1968<\/strong> honorary doctorate from Harvard University<br \/><strong>In 1971<\/strong> he founded the Fundaci\u00f3, the Mir\u00f3 Foundation, in Barcelona.
