Joan Miró. Catalan Peasant with a Guitar, 1924
Following the usual pattern for this type of exhibitions, the painting selected on this ocassion, Catalan Peasant with a Guitar, is show surrounded by other works directly related to it; in this case all the oil paintings by Miró on the subject of the Catalan peasant, as well as their preparatory drawings or those related to the series. The aim of this exhibition, and idea and project of Tomàs LLorens, is to shed new light on the discussion regarding the sequence followed by Miró when painting the series of the Catalan peasant, a topic still not completely clear, and which would help to define more clearly Joan Miro's artistic evolution.
