Salvador Dalí

Elaborated by
Martiniuc Daniela
Salvador Dalí was a Spanish
artist known for his unique
style and his contributions to
the Surrealist art movement. He
was born in 1904 in the city of
Figueres, in Catalonia, and
developed his artistic skills
from childhood. He studied at
the Academy of Fine Arts in
Madrid, but was expelled
before completing his studies
due to a conflict with the
academic authorities.
Surrealism - movement in visual art and literature, flourishing in
Europe between World Wars I and II. Surrealism originated in the
late 1910s and early '20s as a literary movement that experimented
with a new mode of expression called automatic writing, or
automatism, which sought to release the unbridled imagination of the
subconscious
Dali experimented with a
variety of techniques and
colors throughout his
artistic career. He was
known for his use of vibrant
and strong colors such as
red, yellow
and blue, but also for his
use of pastel colors such as
pink and lilac. In addition,
Dali was a fan of shading
techniques and often used
light and shadow effects to
create interesting illusions
and visual effects in his
works.
He became quite a famous personality through his works such as:

The Elefants The Temptation of Saint Anthony


Melting Watch The face of war
Still Life - Fast Moving Illumined pleasures
The persistence of memory
This painting is located in the Museum of Modern Art
in New York since 1934. The painting is often
interpreted as a meditation on the fluidity of
time and the unreliability of memory. The melting
watches suggest that time is not a fixed or stable
concept, while the distorted objects hint at the
malleability of memory. Overall, "The Persistence of
Memory" is a striking and thought-provoking work of
art that has captivated viewers for decades.
Salvador Dali was died on January 23, 1989 in Figueres, Catalonia, Spain.
The official cause of death was heart failure.
