Rear Window -Salvador Dalí

Today Salvador Dalí is the painter most people associate with Surrealism. But relations between Dalí and the core Surrealist group in Paris became so bad that André Breton, author of the Surrealist Manifestoes, produced a scathing anagram of his name ­­ 'Avida Dollars'. Julian Stallabrass examines Dalí's celebrated 1937 painting, The Metamorphosis of Narcissus, and explores
both his achievements as a Surrealist painter, and his troubled history with the Surrealist movement. teleSUR
