Abstract: (750 Views)
Juan Miró, a Spanish artist, stands out as a prominent figure in the realm of abstract art. His body of work encompasses a broad spectrum of abstract symbols, providing a conducive platform for understanding the intricacies of abstract artistic expression. Miró's varied approaches in crafting abstract symbols have given rise to distinct representations throughout his artistic journey. Abstract art offers a unique and unconventional portrayal of the natural world. Abstract art introduces representations that are notably different and unfamiliar in comparison to the natural world. Artists transform and reconstruct various elements, rearranging them within new spatial structures and layouts. Through this reconstruction, they aim to reinterpret the world and uncover its unknown aspects. Thus, interpreting elements and symbols, and tracing their origins, is crucial for understanding abstract art. This research aims to explore the origins and evolution of abstract symbols in three works titled "Blue" by Joan Miró. By collecting textual and visual data using library methods, the study examines the relationship between abstract symbols, the natural world, and the artist's lived experience to address the question: What are the origins of the abstract symbols in Joan Miró's Blue trilogy, and how do they evolve? The research findings indicate that each abstract symbol in the Blue series originates from the painter's previous visual activities. Miró's experience in Cubism, Surrealism, and Biomorphism, along with his familiarity with Japanese culture and the Abstract Expressionist movement of the mid-century, shapes the essence of these works. Under these influences, the artist's dreams and emotions are manifested through boundless space, vast shades of blue, and rhythmic repetition of shapeless spots.
