Biography of a genius
Flamboyant, egocentric, enigmatic. These qualities best describe the Spanish artist, Salvador Dali. His ingenious talent, layered with virtuosity and technical brilliance, was rivaled only by his unforgettable personality.
Throughout his long career, Dali tirelessly explored new media and theories. He created world famous paintings, drawings, prints, sculpters, jewelry, films and books, besides delving into molecular biology and nuclear physics. At the time of his death in 1989, he ranked with his fellow Spaniard, Pablo Picasso, as one of the two most influential and prolific figures in modern art.
