#art, El pintor que no me gusta – The Painter I don’t Like…

(Joan Miró/Photo Artistico RD)

A mi siempre me ha fascinado… No, no Joan Miró, sino la fama que ha logrado… Siempre ha sido un misterio para mi y realmente me gustaría saber que ven en sus cuadros, claro, a los que le gusten. Me da la impresión que si no fuera sido por su familia, que conocía a mucha gente importante y que tenía conexiones…y pasta…y que organizaron y abrieron la Fundación Joan Miró, a Joan no lo recordaría hoy nadie… Y tenían que abrir una fundación, digo yo, porque si no, ¿Donde iban a meter todos esos cuadros?

I have always been fascinated… No, not by Joan Miró, but by the fame he has achieved… It has always been a mystery to me and I would really like to know what people see in his paintings, of course, those people that actually like them. I have the impression that if it hadn’t been for his family, who knew a lot of important people and had connections…and money…and who organized and opened the Joan Miró Foundation, no one would remember Joan today… And they had to open a foundation, I mean, where else would they put all those paintings?

Hasta un vídeo hice de este artista, ¿Qué os parece?

I even made a video of this artist. What do you think?

Aquí os dejo los tres que más me gustan… ¿Fenomenales, no? Como se ve que se los curro bien currados, hasta el nombre, pues se titulan Inmersión Azul.

Here are the three that I like the most… Phenomenal, aren’t they? You can tell that Joan put a lot of effort into them, even to find a suitable title, well maybe not and he just called them Blue Immersion.

Si eres fan de Joan Miró, si lo consideras un gran pintor, y te fascinan sus cuadros, dímelo, explícamelos porque no les encuentro ni pies ni cabeza. Y no hablo de Miró el tío, probablemente habría sido una persona amable y simpática, no lo conocí. Me limito a criticar su obra artística exclusivamente.

Gracias…

If you’re a fan of Joan Miró, if you consider him a great painter, and you are fascinated by his paintings, tell me, explain them to me because I can’t make heads or tails of them. And I’m not talking about Miró the guy, he probably would have been a kind and friendly person, I didn’t know him. I simply limit myself to criticizing his artistic work exclusively.

Cheers…

    I know that you’ve never thought much of much of Joan Miro’s art Francesc, and of course, I respect that, as you’re an artist of great talent in my eyes. From my point of view though as a non-artist I see him somewhat differently.

    I appreciate that his art has changed over the years, but what I’ve seen always gives me a lift in a simplistic sort of way. For me his strong colours represent Spain how I see it. Bright orange, red and yellow circles give me a sense of sunny Spain from sunrise to sunset – and then there is all that blue with bright blue skies and enticing blue seas. I won’t go on, but you get the gist. There are many artists I don’t care for much – but Joan Miro isn’t one of them.

    1. My word Malc, that’s quite a lovely description, and mate, you have painted it brilliantly, much better than Miro could ever have! I love it! Thank you Malc, you’re right and I cannot argue with your valid points and splendid description. All the best!

    J’aime Miro, je suis sensible à son univers poétique, à ses couleurs, au côté novateur de son art. Je considère aussi comme un grand farceur, qui nous fait un clin d👁️‍🗨️ dans chacun de ses tableaux. Juan, je suis Miro de toi !

      2. Peut-être, mais peut-être que comme moi, ils ne voient pas l’art à Miro… Mais je respecte et valorise les goûts de chacun… 🌹🌹🌹

    I don’t dislike him. Many of his works seem to be the type displayed in low end motel rooms. To me, he is more boring than anything else. My medium level Spanish was fluent enough to read your words in the video.

    1. Maybe his designs are good for curtains or for tacky sofas… thank you Pat, and your Spanish seems to be quite exemplary. Cheers.
