Many people are familiar with the dreamlike paintings of Spanish surreal artist Salvador Dali.
His best-known work, “Persistence of Memory,” depicts melted clocks hanging limply off different objects.
Park City art lovers will have the chance to see and purchase another side of the late artist’s works when Madame Christine Argillet, daughter of Salvador Dali’s publisher Pierre Argillet, will appear at the Old Towne Gallery, 580 Main St., this weekend.
Boundless creative, technical master, and risk-taker are all apt ways to describe the marvelous and mustachioed Salvador Dalí (born, May 11, 1904; died, January 23, 1989), who remains one of the art world’s most celebrated and iconic figures. Through his unusual paintings, sculptures, and surreal explorations in film and interactive art, Dalí was responsible for ushering in a new generation of imaginative expression. One of his most celebrated images–the melting clocks depicted in his painting The Persistence of Memory–is etched into our collective consciousness. But the workings of Dalí’s mind and his eccentricities are impossibly out of reach for most.
For all the fans of the famous Salvador Dali, Check out what we were treated with on the Mountain Morning Show. Also Mitch Carter, owner and curator of Old Towne Gallery will be exhibiting the pieces with an extra treat.
Many art lovers remember the first time they saw a piece of art created by Salvador Dalí.
Maybe it was the melting clocks in “The Persistence of Memory” or the arachnid-like legs of the creatures in “The Elephants.”
Christine Argillet had a much more personal experience with Dalí’s genius.
Recently, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak with one of the greatest American artists of the modern era, Peter Max.
