SALVADOR DALÍ
The Argillet Collection
Salvador Dali (1904-1989) remains an iconic figure in the history of art, renowned for his surrealistic visions and eccentric persona. Born in Figueres, Catalonia, Dali demonstrated exceptional artistic talent from a young age, eventually pioneering a unique brand of Surrealism characterized by dreamlike imagery and meticulous detail. Throughout his prolific career, Dali produced a staggering body of work across various mediums, including painting, sculpture, photography, and film, with masterpieces like "The Persistence of Memory" and "The Elephants" captivating audiences worldwide. Despite his controversial reputation, Dali's legacy endures as a testament to the power of creativity and imagination, inspiring generations of artists and enthusiasts alike.
"The Argillet Collection is a tribute to the work of my father, Pierre Argillet, as an extraordinary publisher of the Dada and Surrealist group.This collection reflects a constant endeavor, a very personal archive of not only Dalis finest etchings and tapestries, but an intimate glimpse into my family's personal and cherished photos, films, anecdotes and memories of life with Dali and Gala."
