Salvador Dali Biography (1904-1989) Nationality: Spanish
“I’ll be a genius...Perhaps i’ll be despised and misunderstood, but i’ll be a genius, a great genius” Salvador Dali
Salvador Dali was born in Figueras, in the Catalan region of Spain, and studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Madrid. His main influences came from metaphysical painters such as De Chirico and Carra and the realism of Pre-Raphaelites and French 19th Century painters. In 1928 Dali visited Paris where he met Picasso and joined surrealist painters including Miro, Masson, Ernst, Tanguy and Breton. He became the leading figure of the surrealist movement for the next 10 years.
Dali’s work attempted to describe the unconscious, he took images culled from his dreams and fantasies and integrated these into natural environments. Dali named his technique ‘critical paranoia’ describing the delusional state one could create while aware that control of reason and will have been deliberately suspended.
Dali is one of the most famous artists of the 20th century. As well as his paintings and prints he was a sculptor, jewellery designer and set designer, he also worked in cinema with Luis Buñuel and Alfred Hitchcock.
