Idées 44+ El Salvador Dali Art . An author, artist and provocateur, salvador dalí was one of the most notable figures of the surrealist movement. Eccentric and often outrageous, he was a force of nature who would stop at nothing to rouse shock in his audience. The site includes a wealth of information about the artist, including an extensive gallery of masterpiece paintings, drawings, watercolors and objects. Though chiefly remembered for his painterly output, in the course of his long career he successfully turned to sculpture, printmaking, fashion, advertising, writing, and, perhaps most famously, filmmaking in his collaborations with luis buñuel and alfred hitchcock. Born in 1904 in figueras, catalonia, dalí studied art in madrid and barcelona, where he demonstrated masterful painting skills and experimented with several artistic styles.
