Salvador Dali art on your desktop! On your desktop and in your mind...

Dali, Salvador (May 11, 1904, Figueres, Spain - January 23, 1989, Figueres, Spain), one of the greatest Spanish painters of all time, and one of the most important figures in the history of the modern art movement. Both Dali's extraordinary talent and odd personality helped him to rise above the rest of the Surrealists of the 20th century. Dali greatly popularized Surrealism in Europe and the U.S. with his unique painting styles and unusual ideology. His artwork and influences can be seen almost everywhere around the world. His explicit and controversial Surrealist paintings are some of the most famous, and infamous, paintings of the 1900's, and his rebellious and independent attitude towards art and politics set him aside from other painters, leaving a mark on Surrealist painting forever.
