As part of the celebration of the III International Joan Miró Symposium held on May 15 and 16, the Fundació Miró Mallorca dedicated one of the most emotional moments of the conference to paying tribute to the people and families who, 70 years ago, were linked to Joan Miró and to the inauguration of the Taller Sert. This commemoration, integrated into the events of the 70th anniversary of this emblematic space, served to vindicate the living memory of all those people who contributed to preserving and transmitting Miró’s legacy to the present day.
The event was attended by descendants and witnesses of that historical moment, including members of the Juncosa family, as well as prominent figures of Mallorcan culture such as Maria del Mar Bonet. Also in attendance were personalities linked to the cultural and artistic world of Mallorca such as Pep Pinya, Ramón Aguiló, Ferran Cano and Lluís Castaldo.
This tribute became one of the central events of the symposium, a meeting that brought together researchers, specialists and figures linked to Miró’s universe to delve deeper into his work, his thought and the relationship with the architect Josep Lluís Sert. With this initiative, the Foundation reinforces its role as a space for memory, research and cultural dissemination, connecting past and present through the legacy of Joan Miró.
