It's all Dalí

De creatieve economie speelt in veel steden een belangrijke rol bij de herontwikkeling van voormalige industriële complexen. Creatieve ondernemers zoals kunstenaars, ontwerpers en architecten stellen andere eisen aan de omgeving en laten zich inspireren door de "permanente onafheid" van de locatie. De nieuwe bestemmig van gebouwen en wijken wordt vaak gekoppeld aan tijdelijk gebruik zoals evenementen, theater, muziek en horeca. Deze creatieve identiteit komt voort uit een bewust samenspel van de kenmerken van de locatie en de inzet van de creatieve ondernemer, de ontwikkelaar, de architect en de gemeente.

Salvador Dalí, 1904-1989

The seminal surrealist: Exploring Dalí's grandiose and grotesque oeuvre Picasso called Dalí "an outboard motor that’s always running." Dalí thought himself a genius with a right to indulge in whatever lunacy popped into his head. 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 entire painted oeuvre of Salvador Dalí. After many years of research, Robert Descharnesand Gilles Néret finally located all 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.

Sebastian's arrows

"Sebastian's Arrows is an intelligent selection and translation of letters, texts (some previously unpublished), and images, including an introduction and notes, by Christopher Maurer, giving the general reader, student, and scholar insight into the lives of two exceptional artists." "Written between 1925 and 1936, the letters tell of a friendship that began in the Residencia de Estudiantes, Madrid, where the two waged war against cultural "putrefaction" and the sacred cows of Spanish art. Distinct portraits emerge. The letters - some never before published in English - reveal the intimacies of friendship and the skirmishes and "crossed swords" of poetry and art."--Jacket.

Dalí & Magritte

Dit najaar wijden de Koninklijke Musea voor Schone Kunsten van België een uitzonderlijke tentoonstelling aan Salvador Dalí en René Magritte. De expo belicht de verhoudingen tussen beide surrealisten en toont hun onmiskenbare wederzijdse beïnvloeding. Dalí en Magritte ontmoeten elkaar in het voorjaar van 1929 in Parijs. In augustus van datzelfde jaar reist Magritte op uitnodiging van Dalí naar Cadaqués, de thuishaven van de Spaanse schilder. Die zogenaamde surrealistische zomer van 1929 - ook Éluard, Miró en Buñuel maken deel uit van het gezelschap - zal van groot belang blijken te zijn voor beide kunstenaars. Zowel Dalí als Magritte tasten de grenzen van de werkelijkheid af: ze betwisten onze blik en gooien onze zekerheden om. Hun stijl en persoonlijkheden waren erg verschillend en hun wegen zouden uiteindelijk scheiden. Nochtans bestaat er een fascinerend verwantschap tussen de Catalaan en de Belg. De tentoonstelling werpt licht op de persoonlijke, filosofische en esthetische relatie van deze iconen van het surrealisme aan de hand van meer dan 100 schilderijen, sculpturen, foto's, tekeningen, films en archiefstukken. Exhibition: K.M.S.K.B / M.R.B.A., Brussels, Belgium (11.10.2019-09.02.2020).

Vie secrète de Salvador Dalí

1.0 (1)

This early autobiography, which takes Dalí through his late thirties, is as startling and unpredictable as his art. On its first publication, the reviewer of Books observed: "It is impossible not to admire this painter as writer ... (Dalí) succeeds in doing exactly what he sets out to do ... communicates the snobbishness, self-adoration, comedy, seriousness, fanaticism, in short the concept of life and the total picture of himself he sets out to portray." Superbly illustrated with over eighty photographs of Dalí and his works, and scores of Dalí drawings and sketches.
