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.
