Salvedor dali

My first favorite artist has to be salvedor  dali who was known for photography, sculpture, paintings and more. He was involved in the movements of da da, cubism and of course surrealism.

In 1916 he attended a drawing school. After this in 1922 he moved to a student residence known as residenesa de estudiantes located in Madrid. Another place he studied afterwards was the real academia de bellas artes de San fernando.

My favourite piece of his called 'the persistence of memory' which I understand that this piece is highly recognised. It was created using oil paint on canvas and was completed in 1931. It's being held at the museum of modern art in New York and is 24 cm by 33cm in size.

The piece influences dali's hardness and softness theory which he was Trying out at the time.

I find the clocks to resemble time melting away. What we need to do is catch every minute and cherish it before its gone and while we can grab it metaphorically.
