Send me more information on Salvador Dalí
‘There is only one difference between a madman and me. The madman thinks he is sane. I know I am mad.’
Salvador Dalí was a Spanish artist and a central figure to the Surrealist art movement. Inspired by the Freudian theories of the unconscious mind, Dalí’s work is renowned for its bizarre, dreamlike qualities. Inducing hallucinatory trances, Dalí would create masterful works often featuring consistent and recurring motifs of barren landscapes, wooden crutches and melting objects. His precise technical skills and draughtsmanship have made him one of the most celebrated artists of all time.
Dalí’s list of retrospectives and exhibitions is extensive however the major retrospectives of his work have been held at the Tate Gallery, London (1980), the Centre Pompidou, Paris (1980) and the Staatsgalerie, Stuttgart (1989). A more recent centenary retrospective was held at The Ueno Royal Museum, Tokyo (2004-2006) and a thematic exhibition at the Museo del Corso, Rome (2025).
