Miro-Alfred Jarry: an encounter over Ubu King

November 15, 2009

Surrealist artist Joan Miro got inspired by French writer Alfred Jarry's absurdist play "Ubu Roi". The Catalan painter and sculptor saw in the lead character, King Ubu, an image of the Spanish dictator Franco. Now a new exhibition in northern France has gathered more than a hundred of his works inspired from Ubu.
