    Dalí on Dalí
    Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2006

    Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

    I don't believe a word that Dalí said in this book. Nor do I disbelieve anything. Mostly, I think the literal truth of any statement he makes is irrelevant. You should treat this as a Dalinian self-portrait in words, as vivid, precise, and impossible as any of his paintings.

    Dalí makes it clear that Dalí's biggest achievement is Dalí. He recounts even his masturbations and defecations. Nothing is mundane in his world. Everything has some glow of the holy, profane, crass, or inspiring, and it's not clear that there's any difference. He is free with his opinions on the famous names in his circle, including Picasso and Coco Chanel. He's also free with his opinions on art, or rather on artists, especially the Spanish and most especially the Catalan. Dalí is proudly Catalan, so it's only natural that artists would rise in his esteem as they become more the way he sees himself.

    It's not quite clear how much of the wording is literally Dalí's and how much came from Andre Parinaud, the compiler and editor. The book's underlyinmg time-line is quite linear, not a trait I associate with Dalí's writing. Even so, this book gives an other-wordly look into Dalí's incredible mind.

    The book is vile and disgusting. I'm trying to return it and having a difficult time.

    Salvador Dali was working on his image from an early age, according to this image-building exercise. He aimed to shock his father, his school mates, his fellow artists. Very often the stories become more outlandish as we laugh with him at the expense of narrow-minded people. He was a fascinating personality and I was left puzzling about what was the real Dali and what was the facade.
