Description: Joan Miró was passionately committed to his native Catalonia and its struggle for independence from Spain. But he also longed to escape into artistic freedom. This tension drove his art in strange and beautiful ways. Miró was by turns influenced by Dada, surrealism, and abstract expressionism. His changes in styles and subjects also reflected the horrific events of the Spanish Civil War, World War II, and the dictatorship of Franco. This documentary includes original footage shot in Barcelona and Catalonia, interviews with scholars, images of Miró s paintings and sculpture, and archival footage and photos.Special Features: Gallery of Joan Miró works from the film set to music | Barcelona: What Miró Saw a visual tour | Miró s Squiggles, Blobs, and Beasts a look at the amusing abstract and realistic imagery in his paintingsAll media titles are US Reg A/1 unless otherwise noted.DVD-R: Some titles from HBO Archives, Warner Archives, Sony MOD are now being pressed on DVD-R, these are not bootlegs. It allows titles the studios doesn't want to mass produce to be printed in smaller batches. The DVD, case and artwork are still at the same standards for mass production titles. I do not manufacture these, I order them as needed from my distributor. For an explanation, Google Warner Archives, they have a website explaining the program.SLIPCOVERS: If you must have a slipcover, please ask first. Most of my listings use eBay's prefilled data, which has a stock image showing the slipcover even if it is no longer available. If I have the slipcovers I will include them.Combined Shipping: In the US, each additional title is $1.00. For order outside the US, I use eBay's International Shipping Program.

I can combine your order in one eBay listing to prevent this but I need to know which titles you need first.Returns: See my Returns Policy for details.
