PALMA DE MALLORCA, SPAIN.- The Miró family has just recuperated 19 works of their property placed in the Pilar i Joan Miró Foundation of Palma, to show their refusal to the way the institution has been used by the local government. Palma’s head of Culture, Carme Feliu, insisted on negotiating the return of the works. The grandchildren of the Catalonian painter also wanted to leave an open door and they affirmed they want the works to return to Palma. The Pillar i Joan Miró Foundation has lost some of the most representative and known works created by the Catalonian artist. The heirs of Miró, his grandchildren Emilio Fernández-Miró and Joan Punyet-Miró culminated the much-announced retreat of their works after disagreements with the local government of Palma. The works retreated include 11 paintings, 2 sculptures and 8 graphic works, which for now will go to the Fundació Miró of Barcelona, where, according to the family, they will be restored.
