Artelligence Podcast: Mathias Rastorfer, Galerie Gmurzynska’s Joan Miró Show

October 8, 2015 by Marion Maneker

Mathias Rastorfer, CEO and Co-owner of Galerie Gmurzynksa, talks about the survey of Joan Miro’s work the gallery has mounted for its 50th Anniversary. The exhibition comprises early, radically abstract-surrealist museum-works such as the 1925 “Circus Horse” or the beautifully-hued 1927 “Peinture;” rarely seen mixed-media “Collage-Drawings” of the 1930s;  a suite of large drawings picturing fantastic biomorphic interpretations on the female figure and on the theme of lovers; and a distinct group of Miró’s commanding anthropomorphic bronze sculptures from the 1960s to 1970s.
