(*) Salvador Felipe Jacinto Dalí was born in Figueras (Spain) in 1904. Between 1921 and 1925 he studied at the San Fernando Academy in Madrid where he befriended the poet Federico García Lorca and the filmmaker Buñuel. In 1925 the Dalmau Gallery in Barcelona organized his first solo exhibition, an exhibition after which Picasso and Miró began to take an interest in his works. Dalí was initially influenced by Futurism, then by Cubism (1925). In April 1926 Dalí first travelled to Paris where he visited Picasso. On his second trip to Paris, in 1929, he attended the filming of Buñuel’s movie “Un Chien Andalou,” for which Dalí was co-scriptwriter, and Miró introduced him to the Surrealist group. Dalí found André Breton and… Gala, his future wife and muse (then married to Paul Eluard). He joined the Surrealist movement in 1929. Dalí was interested in Freud’s psychoanalytic theories and defined his method as “paranoiac-critical.” He painted dreamlike and fantasmagorical spaces populated with symbolic elements: soft watches, crutches, fantastical animals, twisted figures. Dalí continued to participate in surrealist manifestations and exhibitions after his exclusion in 1934. He interpreted several famous works in his own way, such as Millet’s Angelus, giving several versions of them. Breton nicknamed him “Avid Dollar.” After the Spanish Civil War he politically aligned himself with Franco. From the 1940s he stated that he wanted to approach reality and returned to a more classical pictorial expression, without ceasing to imprint his personal fantasy on his works. Recurring themes in both his painted and etched works are the woman, sex, religion, and battles. Dalí staged peculiar performances throughout his career, blending art and life, constantly putting himself on display. After ten years of effort, Dalí opened his own museum: in 1974 the Dalí Theatre-Museum was inaugurated. Dalí’s last major passion was “stereoscopic” painting (1975) and he presented his first “hyper-stereoscopic” work in New York in 1978. Dalí, who described himself as a “cannibal,” a “megalomaniac,” and a “polymorphic pervert,” died in Barcelona (Spain) in 1989.
