Designed in 1975, the Joan Miró Foundation has a magnificent collection of works by the artist: some 11,000 pieces, 240 paintings, 175 sculptures, 9 textile pieces, 4 ceramic works, nearly all his graphic works and some 8,000 drawings. Furthermore, part of the legacy of Miró can be seen around the city itself. This is the case with the spectacular sculpture “Woman and Bird” in l’Escorxador Park, which is covered in fragments of tiles.
