Joan Miró – The Ladder of Escape

Sep 12 2011

“We shall not allow the fear of going mad make us keep the banner of imagination at half-mast.”

- André Breton

I am so happy to have cought this exhibition on its final day; it was very moving. The nicest thing to see was this little girl that sat on the ground in front of the ‘Catalan Peasant with a Guitar‘, drawing her own copy of it. I wish all children could grow up like this.

This exhibition also motivated me to start again on something I had already tried in form of an older blog but soon abandoned. I think within this whole new website it is actually working. I was blogging the quotes and signs and things I hear all around the year and scribble in my notebook… This quote I stumbled across somewhere in a bathroom in New York City where it was sticking on the mirror – somebody had made a sticker out of it.
