TF1 AND LCI ARE PARTNERING “MIRÓ”,

THIS AUTUMN’S LANDMARK RETROSPECTIVE AT THE GRAND PALAIS

TF1 and LCI are partnering the “Miró” exhibition at the Grand Palais from Wednesday 3 October 2018 to Monday 4 February 2019. The channels are very proud to associate their brands with this stand-out cultural event, which reveals Joan Miró as free-thinker, committed poet, prolific artist. 
The TF1 group has a long history of cultural partnership and philanthropy, through its LCI and TF1 channels. We back an average of around one hundred events every year, from exhibitions and concerts to ballet and films, making us a major cultural force and a leading supporter of the world’s cultural heritage.

Through a series of exhibitions – from Monet to Hopper, from Velasquez to Hergé – we have built ever closer ties with “Réunion des musées nationaux – Grand Palais” (Rmn-GP), Europe’s leading organiser of cultural events. Our ambition is to enable as many people as possible to share an encounter with art, in all its various forms.

The Miró retrospective brings together nearly 150 works, showing how the Catalan artist’s technique and style evolved over his 70-year career. The Grand Palais show includes masterpieces sourced from private collections not accessible to the public, or loaned from some of the world’s leading museums. And Miró was not just a painter; he was also a highly accomplished collage artist, sculptor, ceramicist and engraver.
