For my final project, I hope that I'll have a chance to use appropriation towards the paintings by Joan Miró, a Catalan Spanish painter, sculptor and ceramicist. I would like to focus on his paintings, because I love his style. He has a unique, distinctive style, with bright colors and his signature shapes. He is considered as someone who follows the surrealism movement, but he spent much time on developing and studying the shapes, lines, the color hues, and the delicate balance between them. His paintings appear to be very childish, but each and every detail was carefully planned and made. I hope to choose a painting of his, and perhaps move the shapes, lines, and dots and the colors and still try to make the painting look good.
Here are some of his paintngs :
For my project, I wish to combine surrealism with modern art, to convey the objects in the frame through the simplest shapes and lines. I'll use acrylic on canvas, but I'll have to think more about the subject of my painting before I could decide on one.
"Research" (which is not a final project proposal yet) is more than finding a style you like to copy. Does his abstract images have any story? or they're pure abstraction? what's the background? and what background of yours do you want to bring to it?
