Description

DIARY OF A GENIUS stands as one of the seminal texts of Surrealism, revealing the most astonishing and intimate workings of the mind of Salvador Dali, the eccentric polymath genius who became the living embodiment of the 20th century's most intensely subversive, disturbing and influential art movement.Dali's second volume of autobiography, DIARY OF A GENIUS covers his life from 1952 to 1963, during which years we learn of his astonishing creative process, inspired by an amour fou for his wife Gala and their relationship both at home in Cadaques and during bizarre world travels. This new edition includes a brilliant and revelatory essay on Salvador Dali, and the importance of his art to the 20th century, by the author J G Ballard. With 20 illustrations.

Author Biography:

Salvador Dali (1 May 1904 - 23 January 1989) was a Spanish surrealist artist renowned for his technical skill, precise draftsmanship, and the striking and bizarre images in his work. He is often regarded as the most famous artist of the 20th century. J.G. Ballard (15 November 1930 - 19 April 2009) was an English novelist, short story writer, satirist, and essayist known for provocative works of speculative fiction which explored the relations between human psychology, technology, sex, and mass media. His autobiographical novel "Empire Of The Sun" was filmed by Steven Spielberg.
