Description

In Miró's Magic Animals Antony Penrose recalls a visit by Miró to his childhood home and a trip to London Zoo, where the artist Miró asked to see 'large birds, snakes and strange creatures of the night'. Joan Miró was a quiet and kind man who 'dreamed when he was awake' and painted wonderfully strange worlds filled with magical animals. Beautifully illustrated with some of Miró's finest works, as well as evocative archive photography by Lee Miller, Tony Penrose's mother, and specially commissioned artworks by children done in the style of Miró, this book will inspire and appeal to art fans of any age.
