Equinoxe (Equinox), created by the Spanish artist Joan Miró in 1967.
Artwork Information
Artist: Joan Miró (Spanish, 1893–1983)
Title: Équinoxe (Equinox)

Details: It was published in a limited edition, typically of 75 impressions, and is hand-signed and numbered in pencil by the artist. It is considered one of his most important and sought-after graphic works.
Symbolic Language
Miró's work is filled with recurring symbols:
The large, central black figure with the prominent eyes and feet represents a person, with the eyes and feet serving as a connection between the real world and dreams.
The star shapes often symbolize female genitalia in his works, while dots with four rays can represent a disembodied eye.
These elements float in a cosmic atmosphere, reflecting his lyrical abstract language that opened up a path for generations of artists. |
