Dali (1904-1989) was a prominent Spanish surrealist artist, best known for the striking and bizarre images in his surrealist work. His painting skills are often attributed to the influence of Renaissance masters. His expansive artistic repertoire included film, sculpture and photography, in collaboration with a range of artists in a variety of media.

萨尔瓦多•达利(1904-1989)同样来自于西班牙是著名的超现实主义画家和版画家,是超现实主义运动的领导者,以探索潜意识的意象著称。他的绘画是细致逼真描绘、荒诞离奇组合与夸张变形处理的混合。达利创作的超现实主义的代表作《永恒的记忆》系列作品,在今天已成为超现实主义梦境意象的同义语,这也成为达利的一张名片。

 

“Lobster Telephone” by Salvador Dali.

 

At the Shenzhen exhibition, his famous “Lobster Telephone,” a composite of an ordinary working telephone and a lobster made of plaster, will be shown. Also known as “Aphrodisiac Telephone,” it is a surrealist object created in 1936 for the English poet Edward James (1907-1984), a leading collector of surrealist art. This is a classic example of a surrealist object, made from the conjunction of items not normally associated with each other, resulting in something both playful and menacing. Dali believed that such objects could reveal the secret desires of the unconscious. Lobsters and telephones had strong sexual connotations for Dali.

 

“Hands With Fish” by Pablo Picasso.

 

Picasso (1881-1973) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist, stage designer, poet and playwright who spent most of his adult life in France. Regarded as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century, he is known for co-founding the Cubist movement, the invention of constructed sculpture, the co-invention of collage, and the wide variety of styles that he helped develop and explore.
