En savoir plus sur le livre
Salvador Dalí (1904–1989) is often seen as the quintessential Surrealist painter, delving into his dream life, hallucinations, and fetishes to reveal the irrational aspects of the unconscious. In this unique volume, Dalí shares his eccentric views on painting, discussing what constitutes good and bad art while offering critiques of notable artists like Vermeer, Picasso, and Cézanne. With a mix of outrageous egotism and humor, he presents 50 "secrets" for mastering the art of painting, covering topics such as "the secret of sleeping while awake," "the secret of carnal abstinence and indulgence for painters," and "the secret of drawing while completely naked." These Daliesque insights blend artistic advice, personal anecdotes, and academic craftsmanship, making the work both informative and entertaining. Illustrated with Dalí's own drawings, this volume is noted for its layout and design, regarded as a remarkable work of art in itself. It offers valuable insights into modern art, making it essential reading for students of Surrealism and 20th-century painting.
