The author, Robert Descharnes, a long time friend of Dali, is the most authoritative writer on the artist. He relates the events of Dali's personal life and of the amazing couple, Dali/Gala; he analyzes his major paintings and the sketches leading to them; he discusses Dali's writings, his work for the theatre, movies, ballets, and book illustrating. A wonderful guide, Descharnes comments in detail about the volume's forty remarkable full-page colour plates.
Now available again, this fascinating look at Dali explores the forces that shaped the life and works of one of the modern art world's most inscrutable and misunderstood figures.
