SOUTHFIELD, MI, June 09, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Park West Gallery recently launched a website featuring the Park West Joan Miro Collection of artwork. A surrealist master, Joan Miro is viewed by many as one of the most innovative and influential artists of the 20th Century. Park West is proud to be a world-wide source for Miro graphic works and has been for the past forty years.
The active and archived Park West Gallery Miro Collection includes more than 1000 works. These include intaglio graphic works, lithographs, drawings, and works created "after" Miro paintings in lithography and pochoir (an early form of stencil printing) under the artist's supervision and control.
"Miro's artistic legacy is huge," comments Morris Shapiro, Park West Gallery's Director. "Although he was one of the least understood masters of modern art during his lifetime and still even today, his work has influenced countless artists. He was the driving force behind visual surrealism and worked tirelessly creating one of the greatest collections of graphic works in history. We at Park West are delighted to now share our extraordinary collection with visitors to our new Miro website."
Art enthusiasts can view multiple galleries of Joan Miro graphic works while learning about the motivation behind the works on the Park West Joan Miro website. Also featured on the site is a thorough biography highlighting both personal and artistic milestones in Miro's life.
