Ok children get ready to get educated outside school! big grin

I love Salvador Dali...hes absolutely amazing artist...hes beyond! Many of you have probably heard of him, or at least seen his paintings...he ''created'' surrealism if you like...

Salvador Dali was born in Spain in 1904. When he was a child, he showed strange behavior and often interrupted his class in school. As he got older, he started to paint pictures that came from his dreams. His dreams and his paintings were scary and unreal.
Dali went to art school in Madrid, Spain. He got kicked out, and never finished. He even spent time in jail. However, he continued to paint, and his art style became known as Surrealism. Salvador Dali drew everyday items, but changed them in odd ways. For example, one of his paintings is of melting clocks.

Before he died at the age of 85 in 1989, Dali had created works in film, ballet, opera, fashion, jewelry, and advertising illustrations.

Here is one of his most famous painting...

Dali is probably my favourite artist, he had amazing talent and his work was extremly imaginative and really gets you thinking about the meaning behind it.

i've been obsessed w/dali for years .... my favorites are 'eggs on the plate without the plate' and 'the burning giraffe'. they r all brilliant, of course, and i dont know if u have those in this thread, but i suggest posting those if interested.

§pearhead
Visage of War...one of the creepiest paintings I've ever seen, and also, one of my favorites. Dali is a genius.

Funny, I just did a Spanish report on Dali a week ago for school. He definitely seemed to be a great leader of the surrealist movement and he proved it in his works as well. My favorite painting of his is "The Persistance of Memory."

SMX
