Joan Miro - In numerous interviews dating from the 1930s onwards, Miró expressed contempt for  conventional painting methods as a way of supporting bourgeoise society, and famously declared an "assassination of painting" in favor of upsetting the visual elements of established painting.
Generally thought of as a Surrealist because of his interest in automatism and the use of sexual symbols (for example, ovoids with wavy lines emanating from them), Miró’s style was influenced in varying degrees by Surrealism. However, he rejected membership to any artistic movement in the interwar European years.
Miró was among the first artists to develop  automatic drawing as a way to undo previous established techniques in painting.MIro along with Andr'e Masson, represented the beginning of . Surrealism as an art movement. However, Miró chose not to become an official member of the Surrealists in order to be free to experiment with other artistic styles without compromising his position within the group. He pursued his own interests in the art world, ranging from automatic drawing and Surrealism, Expressionism, Color field painting.

"How did I think up my drawings and my ideas for painting? Well I'd come home to my Paris studio in Rue Blomet at night, I'd go to bed, and sometimes I hadn't any supper. I saw things, and I jotted them down in a notebook. I saw shapes on the ceiling..."
