"Drawing is the honesty of the art. There is no possibility of cheating. It is either good or bad".
Salvador Dali
DALI was a famous and well-known artist. He was born in Figueres, Spain, in 1904. He died in 1989, in the same town. During his life he studied, worked and produced lots of artworks.
Salvador Dali was involved in a huge variety of art forms, but surrealism is considered his true forte. Ironically though, he was kicked out (expelled) of the group of Surrealists in the 1930s, to which he arrogantly responded: “I myself am surrealism”. (It was totally true)
Surrealist art portrays various unrelated elements put together in any order, depending upon the artist’s view.
You’ve probably known one of the most iconic pieces of surrealist art which shows ‘melting watches’ – Dali’s most famous work, ‘The Persistence of Memory’.
Dali’s work wasn’t just an assortment of random objects – they often had deep religious and political underlying themes. He was also drawn to mathematics and quantum physics and many pieces of his work reflect this fascination as well. But most of all, Dali’s work had no boundaries (limits) – it conformed to nothing and could be anything.
That is why Dali is a great inspiration for you, kids, especially the ones who want to color outside the lines!
