Miró Wall, Ceramic mural at Wilhelm-Hack Museum, Ludwigshafen, Germany
The Miró Wall extends across 55 meters in width and rises 10 meters high, incorporating 7200 individual ceramic tiles in multiple colors and abstract patterns.
In 1979, Joan Miró designed this mural for the Wilhelm-Hack Museum, collaborating with ceramicist Joan Gardy Artigas who scaled up the original design by tenfold.
The mural reflects the Spanish artistic influence in Germany through its combination of Catalan ceramic craftsmanship and modern abstract design principles.
Visitors can view the exterior mural without entering the museum, as it covers the front facade of the Wilhelm-Hack Museum building in central Ludwigshafen.
Each of the 7200 tiles traveled 1200 kilometers from Gallifa near Barcelona to Ludwigshafen, first by mule through mountainous terrain, then by lorry and train.
