Salvador Dalí is the ultimate mad artist, his nightmarish visions and bizarre landscapes expressing the angst of the twentieth century. Over eight decades, Dalí’s activity spanned every medium, from painting and sculpture to film and jewelry, not to mention his eccentric persona, an art form in itself.

This volume spotlights 100 works by this extraordinary creative mind, exploring Dalí’s inspirations and influences, from Old Masters to Cubism and realism as well as experimental approaches plumbing his obsessions with religion and science.

Interesting anecdote: Dalí wrote a screenplay for the Marx Brothers that was never filmed, as MGM thought it too bizarre.
