Plate size: 21 x 27 cm - Artwork size: 49 x 58 cm - Cataloged in Miró Engraver II, page 56. Publisher: Maeght, Paris. // Joan Miró’s Préparatifs d'oiseaux IV (1963) is an aquatint print that illustrates his signature abstract and whimsical style. The composition features a playful entanglement of lines, circles, and star-like shapes, all gathered within a central area of activity. A soft, translucent green arc envelops the forms, creating a sense of containment and energy. Small splashes of bright colors—red, yellow, and blue—are scattered among the black lines, adding a dynamic contrast to the delicate forms. A large red dot near the edge provides a bold focal point, drawing the viewer's eye across the print. The work evokes a sense of lightness and movement, as if capturing the spirited preparations of birds in an abstract, imaginative space.

What is automatism?
Artwork by Hans Hartung

What is automatism?

Automatism refers to a technique in the creative process that accesses material from the unconscious or subconscious mind. It is based on Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalytic method of free association. Artists value this process for its ability to inspire creative thought and spontaneous creation.
