Description
This book examines the evolution of Dalí's art during the 1920s and 1930s when he was associated first with the Catalan avant-garde and then with the Surrealist group in Paris.
During this period, Dalí's painting style changed radically, a phenomenon which has never been fully accounted for in the extensive literature on this subject.
Haim Finkelstein demonstrates that Dalí's writing, in which he explicated theoretical systems such as Paranoia-Criticism and other ideas adopted from Freud, were important for the active and critical role that they played in his development as an artist and often controversial figure.
His 1996 study examines these writings in detail as the foundation for the evolution of Dalí's unique artistic vision.
