Dalí: The Paintings

Description
Painter, sculptor, writer, and filmmaker, Salvador Dalí (1904–1989) was one of the century’s greatest exhibitionists and eccentrics―and was rewarded with fierce controversy wherever he went. He was one of the first to apply the insights of Sigmund Freud and psychoanalysis to the art of painting, approaching the subconscious with extraordinary sensitivity and imagination. This publication presents the artist’s painted oeuvre. After many years of research, Robert Descharnes and Gilles Néret finally located the paintings of this highly prolific artist. Many of the works had been inaccessible for years―in fact so many that almost half the illustrations in this book had rarely been seen in public.

Excellent book on Dali.
Excellent quality, informative and contains descriptions per painting. It was bought as a gift and it was much appreciated.

It's an amazing book.
Salvador Dalí was no doubt a genius,very likely one of the most important artists ever lived.No book is big enough ,or fat enough to have all of his paintings, his ideas, his art and mainly,his unique and very difficult personality.But for the money,and considering the measurements of the book,it's more than enough to get the essentials of this extraordinaire and multi talented person.

Wonderful book...
A very complete reference to Dalis work. A good read and well presented. The colour pictures are very well represented, for a smallish book its very good. I got it for a bargain price.

I really enjoyed this book but bigger pages would be better
Great book. I am new to Art this being the first book that I have on the subject. I bought it following a trip to the Dali museum in Figueres. The book has quite a lot of unintelligible pseudo scientific waffle, most of which is attributed to Dali himself, but by battling through this, the book gives a good feel for the personality of Dali and certainly shows the breadth of his talent. I bough the book for the pictures and it is certainly jam packed full. I would echo the comments of other reviewers that due to the page size the pictures are necessarily smaller that one would ideally like. However they are still fascinating and very appealing to look at. Some of them I felt the need to study with a magnifying glass in order to see the detail.

Superb
Superb. The images are fairly small and it, of course, would be great to have a book ten times the size to really examine the works (at the same price, of course!) but this is a really top quality book with lots of good quality color images as well as black and white sketches etc and perfect to peruse before a good night's sleep and dream

Excellent, but...
An excellent book, perhaps a little more intense for a lay person not well-versed in the language of art. Excellent value for money.
