Preview World Of Art: Dali (Third Edition)
This authoritative account of the life and work of Salvador Dalí, one of the most recognisable artists of the twentieth century - now revised and updated with colour illustrations throughout.
In this revised and updated edition of art historian Dawn Ades's seminal study of Salvador Dalí, based on interviews with the artist, Ades examines what accounts for Dalí's popularity, exploring such issues as the accessibility of his imagery and his talent as a self-publicist. This book reconsiders the Dali´ phenomenon, from his early years and the development of his technique and style to his relationship with the Surrealists, his exploitation of Freudian ideas, and the image he created of himself as the mad genius artist.
This new edition of Dalí is an accessible and vibrantly illustrated introduction to one of the most significant artists of the twentieth century.
Dawn Ades is Professor of Art History and Theory at the University of Essex. She pioneered the study of Latin American art in the United Kingdom and has published widely on Dada, Surrealism, and photography.
