Painter, sculptor, writer, and filmmaker,Salvador Dalí (1904-1989) was one of the centurys greatest exhibitionists and eccentricsand was rewarded with fierce controversy wherever he went. He was one of the first to apply the insights ofSigmund Freud and psychoanalysis to the art of painting, approaching the subconscious with extraordinary sensitivity and imagination.This publication presents the entire painted oeuvre of Salvador Dalí. After many years of research,Robert Descharnes and Gilles Néret finally located all the paintings of this highly prolific artist. Many of the works had been inaccessible for yearsin fact so many that almost half the illustrations in this book had rarely been seen.
