The Showman of Surrealism

Salvador Dalí was born in Figueres, Catalonia, in 1904 and became surrealism's most famous showman. His upturned waxed mustache and theatrical behavior made him instantly recognizable. His wife Gala was his muse and managed his career.

Dalí painted dreamlike scenes such as The Persistence of Memory with its melting clocks. He developed the paranoiac-critical method to explore irrational connections. He made surreal objects like the Lobster Telephone and co-created the 1929 film Un Chien Andalou with Luis Buñuel.

He designed a dream sequence for Alfred Hitchcock's Spellbound in 1945 and sketched the Chupa Chups logo in 1969. He created the Dalí Theatre-Museum in Figueres, where he is buried in a crypt after his death in 1989.
