Salvador Dalí Paintings

The Spanish painter Salvador Dali remains one of the most controversial and paradoxical artists of the twentieth century. Over last few decades, Salvador Dali has gradually come to be seen, alongside the likes of Picasso and Matisse, as a prodigious figure whose life and work occupies a central and unique position in the history of modern art.

 

Dali has also come to be regarded not only as its most well-known exponent but also, to many people, as an individual artist synonymous with Surrealism itself. In addition, Dali was a great artist who was a great self-publicist and showman. The combination was an irresistible formula for success.

About The Average Bureaucrat Salvador Dali Surrealist Art Painting
As a Surrealist, Dalí had an aversion to bureaucrats. The surrealists were disgusted by bureaucrats who represented the despised bourgeois. Dalí also shared their aversion to bureaucrats, stemming from his days at the Residencia when he and his friends would depict them as “putrefactes” (“putrescent”), the child-like caricatures Dalí and his friends created to write off people who represented philistine or outmoded ways. Dalí’s father, who had expelled him from the family home, was a notary (responsible for land transactions in their agricultural village), and thus a respected bureaucratic. Dalí’s image of the bureaucrat, which appears often during this period, is both universal and personal, and one of the most enigmatic figures in Dalí's work.Dalí’s bureaucrat, whose yellow wax-like skin resembles one of DeChirico’s mannequins, is portrayed as a pathetic figure. Two empty cavities are carved into his head, stressing the emptiness of the skull, and instead of brains Dalí places tiny sea shells and pebbles from the local beaches near his home. In addition, the bureaucrat’s ears have been removed, so he is unable to hear complaints.Yet this harsh attack on his father is tempered by a tiny image of filial devotion located just to the left of the bureaucrat’s skull. Two small figures stand in the distance, representing the “Paradise Lost” when Dalí and his father were close during his childhood, an image also found in "The First Days of Spring."
