  1. Salvador Dalí

  2. Preguntas para el Repaso: • ¿Qué piensas que Salvador Dalí quería expresar o comunicar con estas pinturas?

  3. La persistencia de la memoria, 1931

  4. Thoughts? • Time is the theme here, from the melting watches to the decay implied by the swarming ants. • The monstrous fleshy creature draped across the paintings center is an approximation of Dalís own face in profile. • Mastering what he called "the usual paralyzing tricks of eye-fooling," Dalí painted this work with "the most imperialist fury of precision," but only, he said, "to systematize confusion and thus to help discredit completely the world of reality.” • There is, however, a nod to the real: The distant golden cliffs are those on the coast of Catalonia, Dalís home.

  5. Dormir, 1937

  6. Thoughts? • This painting is an attempt to duplicate the dream world into canvas. • “Sleep” is virtually a visual rendering of the body's collapse into sleep, as if it was a collapse into a separate condition of being. • As Dali attests in his book, The Secret Life of Salvador Dali, “I have often imagined the monster of sleep as a heavy, giant head with a tapering body held up by the crutches of reality. When the crutches break we have the sensation of falling.”

  7. La jirafa en llamas, 1936
