On the year 2004, one-hundredth anniversary of Salvador Dali’s birth, I challenged myself to create an iconic representation of keys to the understanding of the genial artist’s mind.
I consulted numerous biographies and essays on Dali’s life and times and made an effort not to simply reproduce images of his paintings but, more than that, I made an attempt to have the reader get close to the life of the artist photographing and interpreting his legacy.
Salvador Dalí was an excellent and technically precise draftsman, and used brilliant and luminous color to represent objects, landscapes, and people with a near-photographic realism.
In 2016 I decided to take new pictures, now more focused on museum visitors and their reactions to the legacy of the artist.
