THE STORY:
Each painter has his own style. But what is unique about Miró and how can this be recognized immediately? Was this famous Spanish artist especially fond of certain colours?
What about these figures and signs we see over and over again in his works? And what other materials besides paint-brush or colours did he work with? In "Who is Miró again?"children learn in an entertaining way what is special about Miró and what distinguishes him from other well-known artists. A creative workshop inspires the children to try out their own artistic creativity.
