Salvador Dali, I Les Revistes

There’s something very addictive about Dali and everything he did. As a fan and obsessive lover of surrealism, a dip into the world of Dali is to leave everything else behind. When the studio pressure gauge hits max at Core Creative its time to retreat to my little glass den and treat my imagination to one of my few heros.

Any follower of Dali knows all to well his fondness for making money as well as art and this book is a stunning collection of the numerous ways in which Dali sold himself to consumerism. Previously I had only collected his art but this book was a real find and covers a wealth of avenues that Dali explored. Its amazing to see just how much work he did in the commercial sector, and I guess a little sad at the same time.

Although is it wrong for a creative to explore all outlets of creativity regardless of whether it makes buckets of money or not?! I Les Revistes is a must for Dali fans and Creatives alike, showcasing the crossover between art and advertising. Its available from Amazon for around £60.00
