The Secret Life

Viac o knihe

Salvador Dali's first volume of autobiography, completed in 1941, comprises one of modern art's most revelatory -- and revolutionary -- literary documents. Encompassing Dala-'s birth, childhood and adolescence, during which we learn of the crucial events and influences which moulded his unique perspectives on life, art, sexuality and philosophy, THE SECRET LIFE goes on the record the artist's meteoric ascendency to global renown -- starting with the Surrealist movement in 1920s Paris, and culminating in his conquest of America in the 1930s. This new edition of THE SECRET LIFE is updated, corrected and fully illustrated, with over 30 images in full colour and another 80 in black and white, including Dala-'s original line drawings. It also includes a chronology of the artist's life from 1904-1941.
