Implicación corporal

How would you translate this: the use of his body? painting with his body? the corporal implication of Miro? I would appreciate some suggestions please. This is the context.....

La implicación corporal de Miró, el procedimiento de pintar en el suelo y el uso de salpicaduras y goteo evoca la "action painting" de Jackson Pollock.

The third style in Ms. Gegg’s aesthetic repertoire juxtaposes two discrete types of paint handling layered one over the other. The lower layer is violently, aggressively non-figurative. She appears to attack the canvas in a wild, physical manner. Then very delicate, linear nudes are drawn over the residue of the gestural abstractions. The Juggernaut blends the physicality of emotionally overwrought brush strokes and elegant contour lines reminiscent of Hans Arp and Joan Miro at their lyrical best. She is a feminist Julian Schnabel; layering Descartes dualism in her recent work.

"Corporal imagery"



Entre la fantasía de sus obras es posible divisar interesantes y extrañas figuras geométricas, imágenes distorsionadas de animales jugando o formas orgánicas retorcidas. La obra de Joan Miró invita a ser contemplada, analizada y degustada para llegar a la satisfacción final.

En los años 50’ Miró comenzó a experimentar su arte a través grabados y litografías. También experimentó con otros medios artísticos como los pasteles, collages, acuarelas, pintura sobre cobre, escenografías teatrales, cartones para tapices y esculturas.

Miro's images, which came from his memory, the unconscious, dreams, and transformative modernist art processes, are at once childlike, innocent and sophisticated. His two poles of existence, Catalonia and Paris, reflect this combination of rural and cosmopolitan. His forms (creatures such as people, birds, insects and animals) are whimsical and expressive, as well as inventive. The ultimate meaning of all of his abstracted realities may not be known, but I think it's safe to say that they all had a meaning for him, in his childhood, in his dreams, and in his life.



Excellent link on Miro's work:

Peer comment(s):

neutral Jim Tucker (X) : There is no talk of imagery in the asker's sentence; rather the discussion is specifically of a technique or physical approach to the painting process. // Very much so - but not in the form of an image (in the sense of "imagery", which is symbolic)

Hi Jim: I started from the same premise, but after reading a lttle about Miro's work,(see link), I became more & more convinced of the result which was translated to the canvas. :))

Miró centered his work mainly around the theme of the body, sometimes concentrating on the torso but always expresing life.
He was also a sculptor of the human body and a ceramist.
The body is his main subject.
