Items related to Dali A&I (Art and Ideas)
One of the best-known and most visually influential artists of the 20th century, Salvadore Dali achieved fame on an international scale as both painter and celebrity. Bridging the gap between high art and popular culture, he created in his Surrealist works a startling imagery that moved freely into the Freudian world of the subconcious - and which has subsequently been widely adopted by media and advertising.

Review:
"This book condenses Dali's career into a highly readable narrative, with a judicious mixture of historical and biographical facts, entertaining autobiographical detail and critical comment on the artist's creative output."-Roger Cardinal, School of Drama, Film and Visual Arts, University of Kent, Canterbury On the Art & Ideas series "Art & Ideas has broken new ground in making accessible authoritative views on periods, movements and concepts in art. As a series it represents a real advance in publishing."-Sir Nicholas Serota, Director, Tate London "The format is wonderful and offers what had long been missing in academic studies: usable manuals for specific themes or periods... I am definitely not alone in welcoming Art & Ideas as a precious set of teaching tools."-Joachim Pissarro, Yale University "Phaidon's series may prove to be the pick of the crop. It boasts expert but undogmatic texts and a wealth of illustrations."-The Sunday Telegraph

Book Description Blanda. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. No Aplica (illustrator). 0. One of the best-known and most visually influential artists of the twentieth century, Salvador Dalí (1904-89) redefined the boundaries of art, fashion and popular culture. His melting watches, space elephants and Mae Wrst?s lips sofa have become firmly established both in the popular imagination and the world of advertising. In this fascinating account, Dalí the painter, writer, film-maker, illustrator, object-maker, jewellery designer, myth-maker and performance artist are all given proper recognition. Robert Radford analyzed the artist?s complex personality and the rich variety of his work against the background of ideological and political conflict that erupted in the Spanish Civil War and the Second World War. He traces Dalí career from the crucial early years in the Spanish town of Figueres to merbershio of the Surrealist group in 1930s? Paris, then on to New York and Hollywood, where his purposefully extravagant behaviour made him a media star. Radford succeds in making the reader rethink and re-evaluate the work of one of the most popular but least understood artists of the twentieth century. 680 gr. Libro.
