Salvador Dalí (1904-1989) was a Spanish Surrealist artist renowned for his flamboyant personality and dreamlike, hyper-detailed imagery that explored the subconscious, symbolism, and the bizarre. Born in Figueres, Catalonia, he studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Madrid before emerging as a leading figure of Surrealism in the 1920s and 1930s. His most iconic painting, The Persistence of Memory, with its melting clocks, exemplifies his fascination with time, psychology, and the irrational. Dalí worked across painting, sculpture, film, design, and writing, collaborating with figures such as Luis Buñuel and Alfred Hitchcock, and he cultivated a theatrical public persona that made him one of the most recognizable artists of the 20th century. His influence continues to shape contemporary art, popular culture, and the broader imagination of Surrealism.
