2 Sons of Catalonia Josep Lluis Sert & Joan Miro
Director: Robert Gardner
Year: 2013
Plot: In 1966 Robert Gardner visited Spain to begin film work on inseparable Catalonian friends Joan Miro and Josep Lluis Sert. A decade later, he accompanied Sert through structures he had designed, including Barcelona's Joan Miro Foundation, France's Maeght Foundation and Joan Miro's studio on the island of Mallorca. The 16mm film gathered over this period was recently edited into 2 SONS OF CATALONIA, in which Sert walks the ramp of The Miro Foundation sculpture gallery, explaining how its design provides the viewer with an optimal experience of the artwork; discusses how Mallorca's 'primitive forms' inspired him; and admires Barcelona's Santa Maria del Mar, lamenting the 'steady destruction of urban space' in New York City.—Anonymous
