Salvador Dalí

Description

"This book offers a wealth of new material about Dali's formative years as a young artist in Spain and first years in Paris. Felix Fanes, one of the most knowledgeable Dali scholars in the world, transforms perceptions of the artist and shows how the stage was set for the emergence of Dali's mature artistic personality. With a fresh and detailed assessment of Dali's truly revolutionary work, Fan?s reveals the central role of the artist not only in the development of the Surrealist movement but also the course of 20th-century art" -- publisher website (August 2007).
