Exhibitions at Fundacio Joan Miro Museum, Barcelona 2024
Fundació Joan Miró is one of the most popular state-of-the-art museums in Barcelona. Nestled amidst the mountains, the museum is an ode to the artist Joan Miro, who enriched the city’s culture with modern, surrealistic art. The museum is home to Miro’s greatest artworks, a large chunk of which the artist, himself, donated to the foundation. His works are a celebration of Barcelonian art and culture. No wonder they dominate the streets of the city.
The museum hosts permanent and temporary exhibitions throughout the year. This page has all you need to know about the different exhibitions showing currently.
What is Fundació Joan Miró?
Often described as the best museum building in the world, this white structure called the Fundacio Joan Miro is home to a rich collection of Miro’s works of art, all of which are a combination of abstract art and surrealism.

The museum is also home to works of other artists like Joan Prats, Kazumasa Katsutas, as well as Miro’s wife Pilar Juncosa.

Book Tickets to Fundació Joan MiróExhibitions at Fundació Joan Miró in 2022
Currently, there are three exhibitions showing at the Fundació Joan Miró. You will find an overview of all the exhibitions in the section below.
1. Bimbo
Dates: 20 September 2022 to 1 May 2023
Bimbo is an exhibition of 18 photographs taken by dancer and photographer Nora Baylach, who shares her passion for cats with German-Swiss artist Paul Klee. The exhibition is named after one of the several cats Klee had as a pet and whom he photographed with utmost passion and devotion. Inspired by Klee’s photos, Baylach studied the gestures of a particular cat on the street and took photographs, some of which remind visitors of the drawings that Klee made of his cats.
2. Jump and Dive
Dates: 21 January 2022 to 15 January 2023
Jump and Dive is part of a cycle of exhibitions aimed at addressing the different aspects that continue to affect emerging art. The cycle is named after a translation of Eugenio Montale’s poem ‘Il Tuffatore’ that was inspired by a 5th-century funerary painting depicting a boy jumping headfirst into water symbolizing the circle of life and death. With this exhibition, the artists aim to find their own voice within existence.
3. Paul Klee and the Secrets of Nature
Dates: 21 October 2022 to 12 Feb 2023
The exhibition focuses on German-Swiss artist Paul Klee’s fascination with nature that compelled him to study his immediate surroundings and express those observations through art. Nature became his artistic refuge to cope with the degenerative disease he had been living with for years. The exhibition showcases Klee’s works based on the natural phenomena in four areas. Each area also includes artworks of four female artists who have never been acknowledged or given the attention they deserve for their work.
