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!
