Muut tiedot
Few people have as peculiar a universe as Salvador Dali, where an imaginative mix of madness executed with technical perfection and precision reigns. As an artist, Dali was a true Renaissance man who worked in art, film, literature, theater, and fashion. His influence on the emergence and development of modernism, and especially surrealism, cannot be ignored. Dali was also one of the first artists in the 20th century to seriously understand the impact of the mass media and popular press on society and culture.
Dalí grew up in Figueras in northern Catalonia. During the heyday of Dadaism in Paris, the young Dalí entered the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando in Madrid but was soon expelled after questioning his teachers and initiating a student rebellion. At the same time, he met Federico Garcia Lorca and Luis Buñuel, who influenced him, and Dali went to Paris where he met the entire young avant-garde such as Pablo Picasso, the Surrealists André Breton, Paul Eluard, René Magritte and Max Ernst, and Dali officially joined the Surrealist group.
The current motif is taken from the fairy-tale world of Hans Christian Andersen, a world that Dali inhabited in 1966 when he published the lithographic suite 'Hans Christian Andersen Tales'.

Salvador Dalí, was born in 1904 in Spain and died in 1989. He is one of the most popular artists of the 20th century and one of our most noted surrealists. Dalí's early paintings show the influence of Cubism, Pittura Metafisica and novelty. He was also largely inspired by classical masters. In 1927 Dalí came to Paris, and in 1929 he was included in the surrealist group with André Bréton as the leader. Dalí was very much influenced by Freud's paranoid-critical method, which means that everything is interpreted symbolically.
Few people have such a peculiar universe as Salvador Dali, where an imaginative mix of madness performed with technical perfection and accuracy reigns. As an artist, Dalí was a true renaissance-man who worked in art, film, literature, theatre and fashion. All these different strings and his popularity still today show that his art expressed something that no one else could transfer from thought to work.
