Galuchka Photographs
Gala, Michele and Robert Descharnes, Dalí and Henri-Rey during a Catalan dance.
This is a collection of photos in black and white and color of Dalí and Gala and the people who knew them, purchased from Robert Descharnes in the mid-1990s. Dalí's nickname for his wife, "Galuchka", is connected with a childhood memory the artist relates in his autobiography. It concerns a particular image Dalí remembers from an optical box theater in his schoolmaster's classroom.

Works on Paper by Salvador Dali
Works on Paper by Salvador Dali
Decalcomania
Salvador Dali
The Surrealists developed a variety of games and techniques involving chance and automatic effects to develop surprising “unconscious” compositions. Decalcomania is an example of such techniques. The surrealist Oscar Dominquez (1906-1957) introduced the technique to the surrealists. Watercolor paints are pressed between two sheets of paper; when they are pulled apart, the resulting pattern is developed into an image.
This haunting composition consists of a white skeletal figure, whose head is composed of red dots similar to a flower bouquet and is positioned beneath a representation of an archway. A dramatic, decorative gold border, containing tiny skulls surround the figure on three sides.
Artists will often attempt to create works of art with non-traditional methods or materials, and Dalí was fond of experimenting with how media (ink, paint, etc.) can be applied to a support (paper, canvas, etc.). ‘Decalcomania’ is the process of transferring pictures and designs from specially prepared or manipulated paper onto a secondary support material. Evoking his oil painting titled Three Young Surrealist Women Holding in Their Arms the Skins of an Orchestra (1936, oil on canvas, Dalí Museum collection) this gouache also features a hand-painted mat featuring winged skulls as an additional decorative motif.

2020 Salvador Dali- The Museum and Artist information Biography until 1929
Salvador Dali- The Museum
The man. The master. The marvel. Salvador Dalí is one of the most celebrated artists of all time. His fiercely technical yet highly unusual paintings, sculptures and visionary explorations in film and life-size interactive art ushered in a new generation of imaginative expression. From his personal life to his professional endeavors, he always took great risks and proved how rich the world can be when you dare to embrace pure, boundless creativity.
The Surreal Journey Begins
Salvador Dalí was born on May 11, 1904 to parents Salvador Dalí Cusi, a prominent notary, and Felipa Domenech Ferres, a gentle mother who often indulged young Salvador’s eccentric behavior. Felipa was a devout Catholic and the elder Salvador an Atheist, which was a combination that heavily influenced their son’s worldview. Dalí’s artistic talent was obvious from a young age, and both of his parents supported it—though it is known that the relationship with his disciplinarian father was strained. Ultimately, Dalí’s raw creativity and defiant attitude would distance him from his father, but it would also become the cornerstone of his wildly imaginative artistic feats.
His older brother, also named Salvador, died nine months before Dali was born.
1908 Dali's sister Ana Maria was born.
Dali’s father enrolled him in public school, but young Salvador spent his early scholastic career daydreaming instead of studying. Later, he was sent to a French-speaking secondary school.
Budding Brilliance
Dalí’s father quickly realized that his son wasn’t fit for public school, so he enrolled 6-year-old Salvador in the Hispano-French School of the Immaculate Conception where he learned French, the primary language he would later use as an artist. Dalí spent his childhood and early adolescence in Catalonia—school years in Figueres and breaks in the coastal village of Cadaques where his family had a summer home. There, he drew and painted the seaside landscape and met his early mentor Ramon Pichot. Cadaques is also where Dalí’s parents built him his first art studio.
Dali painted one of his earliest known works, Landscape, which is now part of The Dali Museum’s permanent collection.
Dali attended drawing school in Figueres and studied with Ramon Pichot, a local painter who introduced him to impressionism and became his mentor.
Dali had his first public exhibition as part of a group show at the Municipal Theatre of Figueres.
School Is Out. Surrealism Is In.
Dalí’s tumultuous 1920s life perfectly reflected the decade’s “roaring” nickname. Four years after being accepted to the San Fernando Academy of Art in Madrid, he was expelled after refusing to be examined in the theory of art and declaring the examiners incompetent to judge him. He experimented with futurism, impressionism and cubism, and during one of his several trips to Paris, movement leader Andre Breton exposed him to the world of Surrealism. In 1925, Dalí had his first solo exhibition in Barcelona, and the decade saw his works showcased throughout the world. After leaving the Academy, Dalí returned to Catalonia where his art became increasingly bizarre and even grotesque.
Dali’s mother died of breast cancer, devastating 16-year-old Salvador. The next year, Dali’s father married his deceased wife’s sister.
1922 Dali was admitted to Madrid’s San Fernando Academy of Art. Madrid . Spain
1928 The exhibition of Basket of Bread at the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania gained Dali international acclaim.
This work is now part of The Dali Museum’s collection.
1929 Dali met his future wife Gala (then-wife of Surrealist poet Paul Eluard), who he married five years later.
1929 Dali officially joined the Surrealist movement and created the shocking avant-garde film Un Chien Andalou (An Andalusian Dog) with Luis Bunuel.
