Joan Miró Foundation Guided Tour

Discover Joan Miró’s surrealist legacy on Montjuïc Hill

Immerse yourself in the magical universe of Joan Miró, a sanctuary where Mediterranean light and the lush gardens of Montjuïc blend seamlessly with the art itself. Here, we discover the mind of an artist who worked with the patience and care of a gardener—someone who found harmony in the simplest elements: a stone, a bird, or a blade of grass. This tour is not just a walk through a museum; it is a journey through a universal alphabet of symbols where the earth and the stars meet to celebrate creative freedom.

On this tour, we dive into Miró’s radical world, exploring his most powerful milestones while decoding his visceral bond with the Catalan land. As we navigate through the collection, we begin by admiring the tactile strength of the monumental Foundation Tapestry and move toward the ethereal beauty of “The Morning Star.” Along our way among many other treasures, we discover how the spirit of rebellion and the upheaval of May 1968 transformed his art, allowing him to defy established norms to find the true essence of painting—turning chaos into a visual order that will forever change how you see the world.

Join us and experience the full mastery of a visionary who redefined art.
