mirës

Mirós is a Catalan surname variant related to the surname Miró. In some Catalan-speaking contexts, Mirós can appear as the plural or regional spelling of the family name. The form is most widely associated with the cultural sphere of Catalonia and the broader Spanish-speaking world.

The most prominent bearer of the name is Joan Miró (Joan Miró i Ferrà; 1893–1983), a Catalan painter, sculptor, and ceramic artist who became a central figure in 20th-century modern art. Born in Barcelona, Miró developed a distinctive style that blended Surrealist automatism with biomorphic, abstract forms. His works cover painting, sculpture, and ceramics, and they are known for bright colors, simplified shapes, and a symbolic vocabulary that often evokes organic or fantastical figures set against flat fields.

Notable works include The Farm (1921–22) and Harlequin's Carnival (1924–28), which illustrate his shift from representational to more abstract, playful imagery. Over his long career, Miró maintained a commitment to spontaneity and invention, while evolving through various phases of modernism. His influence helped shape European avant-garde movements and left a lasting imprint on Spanish and Catalan art.

In 1975, the Fundació Joan Miró was established in Barcelona to preserve and study Miró’s works, support contemporary art, and promote research. The foundation remains a major center for exhibitions and scholarship related to Miró and modern art. While Joan Miró is the most widely recognized bearer of the name, Mirós can also refer to other individuals bearing the Catalan surname in historical and genealogical contexts.
