This order simply packed Dali.Until then, his work was above all a message.He has indeed established himself as the greatest of the surrealist painters.But here, it is aimed directly at future generations.He doesn't just represent things as they are.....he figures them as they will be.Dali not only wants to know the immortality of the artist, he also wants to consecrate the glory of the thinker far ahead of his time.A man whose vision penetrates a future that exceeds everything that men could have dreamed of.Imaginations and Objects of the Future offers us the spectacle of another tour de force, that of Dali, the man of science.He shows an amazing foresight.Beyond the practicability of the concept, and as we know his gift, Dali gives a dream face to his creations and puts them on a mask of humor. It is the exclusive recipe of the master and the brand of the genius "'Daliesque" Salvador Dali gives us a Masterpiece.Product Disclaimer: Please review the full description and photos.
