Salvado Dali

Some of the remarkable pieces from Salvador Dali, as appraised, from the Dali exhibit held in the National Gallery Australia.

It was an overwhelming intellectual challenge to extract the heart and soul from each magnificent piece. The preciseness of each brush stroke, the surrealistic mix of textures and forms and the tortuousness of ideas depicted in such a cunning way. It would definitely worth visiting again.

Will definitely visit again.

Self-portrait with the Neck of Raphael, 1921

The Anthropomorphic Cabinet, 1936

The Hand, 1930

Soft Self-portrait with Grilled Bacon, 1941
(One question being asked if actual eyes were casted, what do you think?)

Christ of Saint John of the Cross, 1951
(I personally adore this piece in how he rendered the crucifiction of Jesus Christ with such graceful manner.)
