Description
SALVADOR DALà I DOMÈNECH (Figueras, Girona, 1904 - 1989).
"Crucifixion", 1964.
Etching and drypoint on paper. Copy 4/150.
Signed, dated and numbered in pencil.
Measurements: 66 x 50 cm; 90 x 71 cm.
During his early years, Dalà discovered contemporary painting during a family visit to Cadaqués, where he met the family of Ramon Pichot, an artist who travelled regularly to Paris. Following Pichot's advice, Dalà began to study painting with Juan Núñez. In 1922, Dalà stayed at the famous Residencia de Estudiantes in Madrid to begin studying Fine Arts at the San Fernando Academy. However, before his final exams in 1926, he was expelled for claiming that there was no one there fit to examine him. That same year Dalà travelled to Paris for the first time. There he met Picasso, and established certain formal characteristics that would become distinctive of all his work from then on. During this period Dalà held regular exhibitions in both Barcelona and Paris, and joined the Surrealist group based in the Parisian district of Montparnasse. The painter landed in America in 1934, thanks to the art dealer Julian Levy. Following his first solo exhibition in New York his international reputation was definitively consolidated, and from then on he exhibited his work and gave lectures all over the world. Most of his production is housed in the Dalà Theatre-Museum in Figueras, followed by the collection of the Salvador Dalà Museum in St. Petersburg (Florida), the Reina SofÃa in Madrid, the Salvador Dalà Gallery in Pacific Palisades (California), the Espace Dalà in Montmartre (Paris) and the Dalà Universe in London.
