Salvador Dali: The Impossible Collection Paul Moorhouse

In the popular imagination, possibly no other artist's work is more recognizable than that of Salvador DaliÌ. Indeed, for many he is the ultimate mad artist, whose singular vision remorselessly probed his own psychological depths. His nightmarish visions and bizarre landscapes express the angst and turbulence of the twentieth century. DaliÌ's creativity embraced many different modes of expression and was never constrained by any one style. Over eight decades, the prodigious range of DaliÌ's activity spanned every conceivable medium, from painting and drawing to sculpture, film, furniture, books, stage design and jewelry, not to mention his highly eccentric public persona, which could be considered an art form in itself.
