Joan Miró: Masterpiece Lithographs from 1948 represents lesser works that nonetheless typify this artist’s contribution to art history. The galley of the downstairs space is lined with 13 of Miró’s lithographs, full of wide-eyed little goofs that topple around stars, moons and curly scribbling. Where Tomaselli might comment on hallucination, Miró’s work is informed by surrealist dreams with open-ended narratives.
