Oiseaux , Joan Miró’s mosaic mural on
the southern-exterior wall of the McKnight Art Center’s eastern section, is a
vital symbol for the Ulrich Museum of Art, Wichita State University (WSU), and
the city of Wichita. A native of Barcelona who was mainly based in Paris, Miró
was a key surrealist in the period between the world wars. Personnages
Oiseaux contains core ingredients of
Miró’s art. Colorful elements float freely across an expansive field.
Perspective and modeling are absent, and the linear patterning suggests a
sprightly calligraphy. According to the title, the abstracted figures are
fantastical bird people. Miró regularly depicted birds, stars, and people to
reflect his profound faith in humanity. The brilliant colors and fanciful
creatures in the Ulrich mural embody the joyous celebration of life that is
typical of his mature work. This is
truly a one-of-a-kind needlepoint project for the art enthusiast!
