Joan Mir\u00f3 conceived L’enfance d’Ubu (Ubu’s Childhood)<\/em> in 1975, inspired by the imagination, gaudiness and fantasy that Jarry had injected into his play Ubu Roi<\/em>. The work, the last of the twenty-seven published by T\u00e9riade, consists of twenty-seven plates, the third of which contains an erratically arranged text by Mir\u00f3. <\/p>\n In this model, we find the same aesthetic as in the definitive sequel, where the tangle of lines and colors is mastered by the use of shapes of apparent childlike simplicity. The character is flanked by slightly monstrous protuberances, with enormous feet symbolizing human voracity and stupidity. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":16969,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[275,267],"product_tag":[159,276,268],"class_list":{"0":"post-16968","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-miro","7":"product_cat-estampes","8":"product_tag-aquatint","9":"product_tag-dry-point-2","10":"product_tag-print","12":"first","13":"instock","14":"shipping-taxable","15":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"\n
