Miro - Loeb

Miro - Loeb. Correspondence 1926-1936 reveals the exceptional relationship between Joan Miro and Pierre Loeb, his gallerist and close friend in Paris. Through previously unpublished letters, richly illustrated with Miro's works and facsimiles, the book traces a decade of exchanges during which exhibitions, collaborations, and new visions of modern art took shape. This vivid and illuminating correspondence captures the daily life of an artist and a dealer at the heart of the cultural ferment of the interwar years. It offers a glimpse into the realities of the gallery world, the networks of friendship, and the evolving dialogue between artistic creation and its dissemination in a time of profound transformation.
