Then destiny, in 1929, led her to meet Salvador Dalí…

Lo demás es historia…

The rest is history…

Este capitulo corresponde a una sección especial en nuestro viaje a través de la historia del arte. Ojala que esto os motive a buscar más y a desarrollar más la idea de que la historia del arte es un continuum. No es que los artistas sean ahora mejores, ni que hayan ido mejorando, es que fueron rompiendo los esquemas, saltándose las reglas y desarrollando nuevas maneras para expresar sus inquietudes. La evolución no implica resolución sino búsqueda.

This chapter corresponds to a special edition in our voyage through Art History. I hope it motivates you to look further and to develop the idea that the history of art is a continuum. It is not to be understood that now artists had gotten better or that there were better artists. It is that artists were now breaking the rules, creating new ways and forms to express their artistic concerns. Evolution does not imply resolution, instead a search.

    I thoroughly enjoyed this one Francesc. I never realised how important Salvador Dali and Gala were to each other, but, as always, you’ve gone that extra mile to explain it all. Thank you my friend. You’re a genius in your own right as far as I’m concerned.

    1. Thank you my friend, I know you are a fan of Dali and through that I decided to look at Dali over and over again and now I have developed a different attitude towards his work. In May, God willing, I will go to Cadeques and to Por Lligat to visit the museum and the Pubol Castle to get further into his «genius». Cheers.

        I wouldn’t say I was a huge fan, but I think he’s been innovative at times. I’d like to know what you think about the museum
