Dalí - World of Art

The third edition of this classic study, a thorough introduction to one of the most popular and recognizable artists of the 20th century. Salvador Dalì was, and remains, among the most universally recognizable artists of the twentieth century. What accounts for this popularity? His excellence as an artist? Or his genius as a self-publicist? In this searching text, partly based on interviews with the artist and fully revised, extended and updated for this edition, Dawn Ades considers the Dalì phenomenon. From his early years, his artistic friendships and the development of his technique and style, to his relationship with the Surrealists and exploitation of Freudian ideas, and on to his post-war paintings, this essential study places Dalì in social, historical and artistic context, and casts new light on the full range of his creativity.
