Since the '30s, graphic works by Miró were dedicated to illustrate some poems and stories. Among the authors of the latter can be found Robert Desnos, Pablo Neruda, Alain Jouffroy, Joan Brossa.
In 1980, Miró created a series of fourteen lithographs for the book "La Mélodie Acide" from Patrick Walberg, a writer who dedicated himself to the Surrealist painters and author of several books on
Miró.
In these illustrations Miró offers an entertaining blend of shapes and colors that seem to dance to the rhythm of an imaginary music.
