Salvador Dalì - Ma femme nue regardant son propre corps.....

Surrealist aesthetics emerged around the 1920s and encompassed all fields of artistic research. Specifically, in the visual arts, Surrealism sought to explore the human subconscious and translate it into artwork through a mechanical writing process based on dream analysis. Consequently, Surrealist artworks propose the representation of a dreamlike dimension, completely dissociated from reality. However, this representation often relies on a hyperrealistic formal rendering, precisely to paradoxically accentuate the illusory and ambiguous nature of the surreal dimension.

The work is a perfect example of Salvador Dalí's themes and artistic language. The entire composition creates a perfect sense of alienation, with Gala's double vision in the foreground and her re-presentation, in a distorted perspective, as an absurdly eclectic architecture. Playing with images and their meaning is typical of Salvador Dalí's visions, which fuel their brazenly illusory nature with an impeccable hyperrealist formal language. References to the world of classical art are also present, a recurring theme in many of the Catalan artist's works.

Salvador Dalí (Figueres 1904-1989). A major representative of historical Surrealism, he was a photographer, writer, and filmmaker (his collaboration with Luis Buñuel is famous) as well as a painter. His works are based on the principles of psychoanalytic associationism, following the teachings of André Breton. His style is characterized by a turgid, harsh hyperrealism, in which his subjects display an obsessive attention to detail. His compositions are a mix of free associations, biomorphic organisms, and cultural references.
