Salvador Dalí’s Stairway To Heaven
Morning investments made me ponder ideas of the 20th century. The work of Salvador Dalí resembles colors of labor, sweat and self-made brown, gray tones parallel the horrors experienced in World war 1. The terror in counting down time before reaching the stairways to heaven. Will I take the elevator and fly in through the skies or the ground?
Salvador Dalí a surrealist artist that reflects real, sex and imaginary connections to the Dada movement of the progression of what evolved into surrealism. The art movement that tracks back to 1923. The legend story Yves Tanguy jumping out of a bus to observe a strange image. The child’s brain by the Italian Giorgio de Chirico (Brodskai͡a, N., & McShane, Megan. (2012).
Tanguy a sailor changed his destiny and decided to stay on shore and become an artist. Giorgio de Chirico’s work now analyzed in the 21st century reflects modern ideas that can be interpreted for new media. The work that captivated Yves Tanguy started a movement of artist including:
- Max Ernst 1891–1976
- Yves Tanguy 1900–1955
- Joan Miró 1893–1983
- André Masson 1896–1987
- René Magritte 1896–1987
- Salvador Dalí 1904–1989
- Paul Delvaux 1897–1994
Still today Yves Tanguy’s work remains observed and allows students to capture dreams, and ideas that remain stored in data for branding and publication. The work’s documented today can be interpreted for design aesthetic of lines and shadows we see in modern art influenced by Salvador Dalí’s drawings. The techniques Salvador Dalí uses to capture the left and the right brain reflect the placement of the colors chosen. The depth and field of Dalí’s work capture emotions that history now reserves.
