This illustrated book was originally published in 1958, … more Joan Miró, A Toute Épreuve, by Paul Éluard, republished 1984, 1st edition. This illustrated book was originally published in 1958, this is a republished edition from 1984, including an introduction by Anne Hyde Greet. This is an illustrated book with seventy-five woodcuts and collagraphs (including wrapper front) and five woodcuts (eleven with collage). Hard cover, text in French.

It was through contact with Surrealist poets and painters in Paris in the 1920s that Joan Miró evolved his visual language of signs. With curvilinear lines and biomorphic shapes, he sought to meld the realm of the unconscious to essential life forms, veering toward abstraction but always maintaining links to humanity, nature, and the cosmos. Miró's relationship to printmaking was tentative at first. It was when he was introduced to the painter Louis Marcoussis, who maintained a printshop in his studio, that he took up printmaking in earnest, and his natural inclinations toward new tools and materials blossomed.

Miró continued his exploration of intaglio techniques at Stanley William Hayter's Atelier 17 workshop in New York in the 1940s, when he was there on an extended visit. Soon after, he began his active involvement with lithography through the instigation of his Parisian dealer Aimé Maeght, making numerous individual prints, as well as posters, invitations, catalogue covers, and even holiday cards. He also turned increasingly to illustrated books, a format he had attempted earlier in his career, and created twentieth-century landmarks like À Toute épreuve, seen here. Further discoveries followed, with Miró making more than two thousand prints in all, always expanding his creativity through his love of technique and process. less
