Joan Miró. "Dona, ocell, estrella (Homenatge a Pablo Picasso)", 1973. Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía © Successió Miró, 2023 / Pablo Picasso. "Figura i perfil", 1928. Musée national Picasso-Paris © Successió Pablo Picasso, VEGAP, Madrid, 2023.

To coincide with the 50th anniversary of the death of Pablo Picasso and the 40th of Joan Miró, the Fundació Joan Miró and the Museu Picasso Barcelona are preparing the exhibition Miró-Picasso, to be held simultaneously at the Foundation and the Museum between October 19, 2023 and February 25, 2024.

This will be the first time that the Fundació Joan Miró and the Museu Picasso Barcelona have jointly organized, produced and hosted a single exhibition in two institutions. They show a clear demonstration of the intense and extensive relationship that Miró and Picasso maintained with the city of Barcelona.

The guiding thread that runs through the exhibition is based on two essential concepts: firstly, the lifelong friendship between Joan Miró and Pablo Picasso, reflected in works and documents that attest to their meetings and the points at which they converged and diverged in the realm of art; and secondly their recognition of Barcelona, the result of which was the legacies they each bequeathed to the city in the form of monographic museums that bear their names.
