About Joan Miro Tray – RMN-Grand Palais – Bleu II-III Triptych (1961)
Part of Réunion des Musées Nationaux-Grand Palais’ tribute to Joan Miro comes this melamine Joan Miro Tray featuring his work Bleu II-III Triptych (1961). Many of Joan Miro’s paintings focused on similar blues. The color is rich and attention-grabbing, but that is not the reason he swayed so heavily toward this hue. Miro believed the color to have an importance that other colors did not, and he associated it with a surreal, dream-like night. Joan Miro was a Spanish painter of the École de Paris trained at Barcelona and his early work showed the influence of Van Gogh and the Fauves. In 1919 he came to Paris and associated with Picasso and his Cubist followers. From c. 1923 he was among the most prominent of the Surrealists and over the years he evolved an easily recognizable style of great power and originality lying between Surrealist fantasy, abstractionist construction, and decorative arabesque. In 1918 André Breton wrote: “Miró is probably the most surrealist of us all.” Yet his work almost alone among the surrealists survived the disruption of that movement with development but no essential change.
