surrealism: Sunday Dalí: Galatea of the Spheres, 1952, oil on canvas, Fundación Gala-Salvador Dalí, Figueres. (via pseudoxerox) In 1951 Dalí had published his Mystical Manifesto in which he announced his infatuation with religion and science. Today, a reasonable man might think that those obsessions are incongruent, however for Dalí it was simply another “double image” of sorts. As we see in this painting, the bust of Gala in is formed from small particles (DNA perhaps). Within those particles there are also images of the earth (middle right) and the one at the top left corner looks conspicuously like an egg.
