The Secret Life of Salvador Dalí

INSIDE THE ARTIST’S MIND

"At the age of six I wanted to be a cook. At seven I wanted to be Napoleon. And my ambition has been growing steadily since." So opens a book which Time magazine’s called “a wild jungle of fantasy, posturing, belly laughs, narcissist and sadist confessions". Motifs reproduced from the pages of Dalí’s 400-page volume include ‘Dullita’, ‘Bon Jour Cher Amie’, ‘Gala Paris’ and ‘Walking in the country of Figueras at sundown.’ The iconic Mae West Lips Sofa provides visual punctuation.
