Emerging into the public spotlight in the early 1920s, he first experimented with Fauvism and Cubism before developing a \u003cstrong\u003edistinctive style of symbols and pictograms\u003c\/strong\u003e, arranged in \u003cstrong\u003eelusive visual narratives\u003c\/strong\u003e, with frequent reference to Catalan life. As his career progressed, Miró moved towards Surrealism, and, despite never fully identifying with the movement, emerged as one of its most celebrated practitioners with techniques including \u003cstrong\u003eautomated drawing, Lyrical Abstraction, and Colour Field painting\u003c\/strong\u003e.
