I was planning a post with the title “Miró, Miró on the Wall” to show some of the fabulous tapestries and wall-hangings we saw at the Fundació Joan Miró last year in Barcelona.
But since this is an OddBall post, I’ve chosen these instead.
After a good look around the spacious museum/gallery we went up on the roof where we found these delights.
I think my favourite is the lady with red legs and a tap on her head.
Because of her headgear and her pose, I like to call her The Tap-Dancer. Her “official” name is Jeune Fille s’Évadant which translates as Girl Escaping .
(I dont suppose Tap-dancer would be a pun in translation)

Anyone have any ideas for a name for this one ?……….
OddBall on the Roof ©HelenBushe
or for these ?………
Yellow Fork ©HelenBushe
Black Stool, Red Stool ©HelenBushe
If we go back there again on our next trip to Barcelona I must find out all their proper names.
***STOP PRESS*** Thank you Charles at charleswaugh.com for a name for the second picture. Charles suggests Clown with a Heart. I like it!
