| The Joan Mirķ Foundation is a museum of modern art honoring Joan Mirķ and located on Montjuīc in Barcelona, Spain. The building housing the museum is itself a notable example of modern design drawing from regional traditions. Designed in 1975, the Joan Mirķ Foundation has a magnificent collection of works by the artist: some 11,000 pieces, 240 paintings, 175 sculptures, 9 textile pieces, 4 ceramic works, nearly all his graphic works and some 8,000 drawings. Furthermore, part of the legacy of Mirķ can be seen around the city itself. This is the case with the spectacular sculpture "Woman and Bird" in l'Escorxador Park, which is covered in fragments of tiles. |
