Salvador Dali - Epic Artist Series - One Minute History

00:01:00

Salvador Dali is born in Figueres, Spain, where his first public art show opens at the Municipal Theatre. Salvador is expelled from art school for declaring his examiners too incompetent to judge him. He spends time with Picasso and Miro before joining the Surrealist Movement. He becomes their symbol, until his public antics and apolitical stance cause him to once again be expelled. During the war, he flees to the U.S., and works with Alfred Hitchcock and Walt Disney. Dali develops a new art theory, ‘Nuclear Mysticism”, a combination of religion, math and science. The Dali Theatre and Museum opens on the same site as his first art show. When looked at from a distance, his final masterwork resembles Abraham Lincoln and his final painting is based on Rene Thom’s ‘Catastrophe Theory’. Dali dies and is put to rest in a crypt beneath his own museum. Salvador Dali designed a 3D hologram of Alice Cooper, has a category named after him in the World Beard Championships, and created over 1500 paintings.
