Salvador Dali was a Spanish Catalan surrealist painter. He was born on May 11, 1904 in Figueres, Catalonia, Spain. The Salvador Dali Paintings are best known for their striking, but bizarre images.
Salvador Dali was a skilled draftsman whose painting skills are attributed to the influence of the Renaissance masters. The Persistence of Memory, which Salvador completed in 1931, is best known among the Salvador Dali paintings.
This realism was enamoured with a Symbolist influence by 1897 as shown in Picasso paintings of a series of landscapes in non-naturalistic violet and green tones. Among his well renowned works are The Hallucinogenic Toreador and The Discovery of America by Christopher Columbus, which were already in the museum's collection and The Sacrament of the Last Supper which was in the National Gallery collection in Washington, D.C.
Dali became the leader of the Surrealist movement where one of Salvador Dali posters, The Persistence of Memory was considered the best of surrealists' works. However in 1934, he was expelled from the group during a trial as the war approaches.
La Vie was an example of the Picasso paintings during the Blue period. It is considered as a gloomy allegorical painting in the art world. It represented a culmination of several posthumous portraits of Carlos Casagemas done by the artist starting in 1901.
The Frugal Repast was among the Picasso paintings at the end of his Blue period. It depicted an emaciated couple consisting of a blind man and a sighted woman, seated at a bare table.
In Figueres, Spain, Dali opened a Teatro Museo in 1974 which was followed by Paris' and London's retrospectives at the end of the decade. In 1982, after the death of his wife Gala, his health also started to take a downfall. His condition deteriorated further when he was burned in a fire at his very own home in Pubol on 1984. He died in the 23rd of January, 1989 from a cardiac failure with respiratory complications in Figueres.
