Our take
Part of an exhibition about the work of Juan Miró, this short by Pere Portabella illustrates the weaving of an enormous, wonderful tapestry created by the artist. More than just an accompaniment to the work itself, Miró Tapis is a testament to the beauty of making and the value of craftsmanship.
