The Joan Miró Foundation is a contemporary art museum located in Montjuïc Park in Barcelona. Whenever you are in Barcelona you will inevitably come across his masterpieces. His mosaic will greet you at the airport, logos made by Miro will look at you from all the logos of La Caixa bank departments, and his signatures will be on the ceramic tiles under your feet.
Joan Miro initiated this museum himself in 1975. Now La Fundacio owns over 10000 paintings, drawings, sculptures, and even carpets.
Come here if you are a fan of contemporary art. Come here if you are in love with Picasso and would like to know more about cubism art. And finally. Come here if you like Miro and his Catalan soul.
We have another wonderful idea for those who really adore cubism. Hotel Joan Miró Museum is located by the sea in Palma de Mallorca. The hotel is decorated with Joan Miró originals, and Miró Museum is situated across the street and the beach is a short walk away. In summer, a room in such a hotel costs 120-150 euros, and in autumn it is even cheaper.
The museum's schedule changes depending on the season. Usually it closes at about 20.00 but sometimes at 18.00
The entrance ticket costs 14 euros. You may buy the ticket online.
You may also buy a special Barcelona Museum Pass which allows you to enter five best Barcelona museums: Fundació Joan Miró, Museu Picasso of Barcelona, Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya, The Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona, Museu d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona, and Fundació Antoni Tàpies.
