Skip-the-Line Ticket: Joan Miro Foundation in Barcelona
Barcelona, Spain
See the works of Spanish artist Joan Miró at the Fundació Joan Miró (Joan Miró Foundation) in Barcelona with this skip-the-line entrance ticket. The museum building is the result of the friendship between two extraordinary artists, Miró and the architect Josep Lluís Sert. As you admire the artwork, you'll be part of a space conceived by Miró with a desire to make art accessible to all—a place for participation and dialogue based on ideas and artistic disciplines.
The Fundació Joan Miró is a living center, open to the world, where you can discover and explore the work of Joan Miró and other artists. With your skip-the-line admission, you can avoid the ticket queue to get inside the building, a cultural icon of Barcelona, located in the green zone of Parc de Montjuïc.
Described by Miró as “an open, radiant architecture focused on the vision of art and the contemplation of nature: a garden for everybody,” the museum is a space where the boundaries between art, architecture, and landscape blur. The collection on display offers an overview of the different stages of Miró’s oeuvre and the different media that he worked with in the course of his career. It is one of the most comprehensive collections of his work anywhere in the world.
“What counts is not the work itself, but the course of one's spirit throughout one's entire life.” –Joan Miró
Miró's contact with avant-garde movements, his links to surrealism, and the influence of poetry led him to develop a unique, intensely personal language through which he expressed his vision of the world. With his tireless spirit of inquiry, he transcended conventional painting and became one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.
In addition to the collection, the Fundació Joan Miró organizes temporary shows, exhibitions of the work of emerging artists at Espai 13, and activities for audiences of all ages.
Great place for art if your into this artist. I found it strange. But I did enjoy the wonderful lunch in the cafe! This was one of the better meals we had during our 10 days in Spain! And the views from here are pretty cool!

Very convenient. No waiting whatsoever.

Not for me. Seems like a poor attempt to copy modern artists. Don't worry about skip the line as there isn't many people ever queuing or wanting to get in. The view of the city from the outside of the building was the best bit and the Olympic pool down the road was more interesting

What a fabulous collection of MIro art. We had so much fun wandering this gallery. Lunch in the museum shop was a nice break. Plan to spend about one hour here plus lunch. Easy to reach on the hop on hop off bus

La Fundacion Joan Miro museum was spectacular. A gift from Miro himself to the city of Barcelona._br/_ You have to love Miro's vision to appreciate his art. La Fundacion does a great job showcasing Miro's vision, passion and esthetics. _br/_ It's located on the beautiful Montjuïc hill.

Audio guide was one of the best we have used throughout Spain

Absolutely a must on any visit to Barcelona. We went early so our skip the line tickets were not that much needed.
Review by: Norman K, June 2016
Well, we did not really have a tour, just a Skip the Line ticket which it turns out we really did not need as there was no line at all. We liked the museum although while we were there, a very loud tour guide who was yelling was so loud it drowned out our audio guide.
