Original etching, aquatint, carborundum and scraper printed in colors on Arches wove paper. - Hand-signed in pencil in the margin lower right Miró - Published by Maeght, París. // Pantagruel by Joan Miró, created in 1978, is a striking limited edition print that combines etching, aquatint, carborundum, and scraper techniques on Arches wove paper. The piece, measuring a substantial 137.5 x 96.5 cm, features bold black forms interspersed with vibrant red, blue, and yellow circles, creating a lively, abstract composition. A dynamic figure seems to dance above the primary form, adding a whimsical element. The title, Pantagruel, evokes the larger-than-life character from Rabelais’s literature, suggesting a connection to themes of imagination and surrealism. Miró’s meticulous lines and textured shading provide depth and a sense of movement, inviting viewers to explore the detailed layers and symbolic forms. This large-scale work captures Miró’s playful yet profound approach to abstraction.

What is automatism?
Automatism refers to a technique in the creative process that accesses material from the unconscious or subconscious mind. It is based on Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalytic method of free association. Artists value this process for its ability to inspire creative thought and spontaneous creation.
