Well, it’s 3h30 from Lisboa but it’s worth it to take the train (or any other transport, of course) to see the biggest Miró exhibit in Portugal on record.
“The exhibition ‘Joan Miró: Materiality and Metamorphosis’ covers a six-decade period in Joan Mirós’s career – from 1924 to 1981. It focuses in particular on the transformation of pictorial languages that the Catalan artist first developed in the mid-1920s. The exhibition considers his artistic metamorphoses across the mediums of drawing, painting, collage and work in tapestry. The exhibition is based on the collection of 84 works by Miró, owned by the Portuguese State. This important exhibition is curated by Robert Lubar Messeri, a leading world expert in Miró’s work. Portuguese architect Álvaro Siza Vieira will be responsible for the exhibition’s architectural design.”
