Salvador Dali was a Spanish Catalan surrealist painter. He was born on May 11, 1904 in Figueres, Catalonia, Spain. The Salvador Dali Paintings are best known for their striking, but bizarre images.
He attended the San Fernando Academy of Fine Arts in Madrid and has been recognized early on his one-man show at Barcelona in 1925. When three Salvador Dali posters were shown at the third annual Carnegie International Exhibition (Pittsburg, 1928) which included The Basket of Bread which was now in the Museum's Collection, he became internationally known.
In one of the 1943 Salvador Dali paintings, Geopolitics Child Watching the Birth of the New Man, Salvador pictured a large egg-shaped globe of the world out of which a new man is struggling to get out. The globe represents North America. There is blood coming out of the egg crack while England was firmly grasped in the hand of the man. The painting is conveying the message that it is in the hands of America that the fate of England hangs.
Dali became the leader of the Surrealist movement where one of Salvador Dali posters, The Persistence of Memory was considered the best of surrealists' works. However in 1934, he was expelled from the group during a trial as the war approaches.
Salvador's interest in mathematics and physics is depicted in one of the 1954 Salvador Dali paintings, Crucifixion. In this painting, Jesus is crucified on an unfolded hypercube.
The Frugal Repast was among the Picasso paintings at the end of his Blue period. It depicted an emaciated couple consisting of a blind man and a sighted woman, seated at a bare table.
In Figueres, Spain, Dali opened a Teatro Museo in 1974 which was followed by Paris' and London's retrospectives at the end of the decade. In 1982, after the death of his wife Gala, his health also started to take a downfall. His condition deteriorated further when he was burned in a fire at his very own home in Pubol on 1984. He died in the 23rd of January, 1989 from a cardiac failure with respiratory complications in Figueres.
