\"\"The anti-painting of Joan Mir\u00f3 is not an actual technique as it is more of a statement. He didn’t mean to violate or to deconstruct the norms and traditions of painting, but rather to remove all sacred qualities and status of the artistic work. It began with his claim:<\/span><\/p>\n

Mir\u00f3 tortured the canvas with unconventional methods: he burnt it, wounded it and perforated it in order to create a grotesque disfigurement.<\/span><\/p>\n
