Summary: Painter, sculptor, writer, and film maker, Salvador Dalí (1904-1989) was one of the 20th century's greatest exhibitionists and eccentrics, provoking fierce controversy wherever he went. He was one of the first to apply the insights of Sigmund Freud and psychoanalysis to the art of painting, bringing extraordinary sensitivity, imagination, and concern for precision to bear upon submerged levels of consciousness. This lively biography presents the infamous surrealist in full colour and in his own words, gathering his provocative ideas and placing them in their various contexts.
