Dalí

Details

Part of the Spirits of Art series — a collection of portraits dedicated to legendary artists whose influence continues to live beyond time. Welcome to Dalí's dreamscape, where a great skull strides across the desert on impossibly thin legs, golden spheres drift overhead and a spindly elephant melts into the distance. Nothing here obeys the ordinary rules of the world — and that is exactly the point. The famous curling moustache still clings to the skull, a wink from the master of the surreal. It is strange, funny and a little haunting all at once, the way our own dreams often are. To live with this piece is to keep a door open to the unconscious and the absurd. Dalí turned dreams into paint; here his mischievous spirit wanders on. Acrylic on Canvas 20x28 inches
