Salvador Dalí Abstract Sculptures

Spanish, 1904-1989

Instantly recognizable by his waxed, upturned mustache, the flamboyant Salvador Dalí is one of modern art’s most distinctive figures. He is also one of the icons of the 20th-century avant-garde Surrealist movement, whose dreamlike images, drawn from the depths of the unconscious, he deployed in paintings, sculptures, prints and fashion, as well as in film collaborations with Luis Buñuel and Alfred Hitchcock.

Dalí was born in Figueres, Catalonia, and even as a youngster, displayed the sensitivity, sharp perception and vivid imagination that would later define his artworks. In these, he conjured childhood memories and employed religious symbols and Freudian imagery like staircases, keys and dripping candles to create unexpected, often shocking pieces.

Dalí's use of hyperrealism in conveying Surrealist symbols and concepts that subvert accepted notions of reality is epitomized in what is perhaps his most recognizable painting, The Persistence of Memory (1931), in which he depicts the fluidity of time through melting clocks, their forms inspired by Camembert cheese melting in the sun. His artistic genius, eccentric personality and eternal quest for fame made him a global celebrity.

“Each morning when I awake, I experience again a supreme pleasure,” he once said. “That of being Salvador Dalí.”

Artist Biography: William Robert Stevenson was born in 20 May 1925 in Eugene, Oregon. His family moved to Minneapolis, MN but he promptly returned to Oregon and Washington during the Great Depression to work in the Works Progress Administration (WPA). Hoping to study Art, his future was sidetracked when he was drafted into the United States Army at age 17 years old in early 1942. Being a strong swimmer, and having worked at stables as a child, he initially served in the last US Cavalry Corps, and also as a Swimming Instructor for the United States Army. Upon the abolition of the Cavalry Corps, he was trained as a Gunnar and Tank Commander for the M-4 Sherman Tank under General Patton...

Charna Rickey 1923 - 2000 Mexican-American Jewish Woman artist. Signed Bronze House of Books, Architecture Bronze sculpture, signed Charna Rickey and on the front "House of the book." It depicts an open Torah. Original patina. Approx. dimensions: 7 in. H x 9 in. W x 8.5 in. D. Weight: 13.1 lbs. Modernist Judaica Sculpture Born Charna Barsky (Charna Ysabel or Isabel Rickey Barsky) in Chihuahua, Mexico, the future artist lived in Hermosillo and immigrated to Los Angeles when she was 11. She was educated at UCLA and Cal State L.A., she married furniture retailer David Rickey and explored art while raising their three daughters. Moving through phases in terra cotta, bronze, marble and aluminum, she found success later in life. Rickey became one of the original art teachers at Everywoman's Village, a pioneering learning center for women established by three housewives in Van Nuys in 1963. She also taught sculpture at the University of Judaism from 1965 to 1981. As Rickey became more successful, her sculptures were exhibited in such venues as Artspace Gallery in Woodland Hills and the Courtyard of Century Plaza Towers as part of a 1989 Sculpture Walk produced by the Los Angeles Arts Council. Her sculptures have also found their way into the private collections of such celebrities as Sharon Stone. Another of Rickey's international creations originally stood at Santa Monica College. In 1985, her 12-foot-high musical sculpture shaped like the Hebrew letter "shin" was moved to the Rubin Academy of Music and Dance at Hebrew University in Jerusalem. The free standing architectural Judaic aluminum work has strings that vibrate in the wind to produce sounds. Rickey also created art pieces for the city of Brea. They commissioned some amazing art pieces by Laddie John Dill, Walter Dusenbery, Woods Davy, Rod Kagan, Pol Bury, Niki de Saint Phalle, Magdalena Abakanowicz, Larry Bell, John Okulick...

"Lincoln In Dalivision" [Bronze] Bas Relief Sculpture by Salvador Dalí, Framed
By Salvador Dalí­
Located in Encino, CA
"Lincoln In Dalivision," an original bronze edition bas relief with precious metal patina by Salvador Dalí, is a piece for the true collector. One of Dalí's most iconic images, Lincoln in Dalivision, also known as "Lincoln in Galavision," was based on Dalí's painting "Gala Contemplating the Mediterranean Sea which at a distance of 20 meters is transformed into the portrait of Abraham Lincoln (Homage to Rothko)." This was one of the first examples of the use of photomosaic or photographic mosaic by a recognized artist. This artistic approach has been used in the decades since by countless artists. Leon Harmon published the first work on photomosaic concepts, "The Recognition of Faces," in Scientific American in 1973. (See Image Bank Above) In the article, Abraham Lincoln's portrait from the US five-dollar bill was featured, comprising a collection of solid gray mosaics. (A copy of the article is part of the included documentation.) That next year in 1974, Dalí began his first painting, later completing another version in 1976 that led to Lincoln in Dalivision. Gala was the artist's lifelong partner, his muse, and the only model he ever used. Certainly one could easily say there would be no Dalí without Gala. Not only did they have a romance that rivaled other art couples like Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo, or Jackson Pollock and Lee Krasner, but Gala was his manager, agent, and procurer of artistic contracts. Alluded to in the original title was the artist's use of color in the original oil paintings, in his own words an homage to Rothko. Mark Rothko was an American Abstract Expressionist painter, influenced by Paul Klee and Georges Rouault. His belief of using color, just colors and the relationship between them to evoke emotion into the viewer served as an inspiration for Dalí's use of simplified shapes, color graduations, and value relationships. The multiple blocks of colors in varying progression of hues ending in a dark perimeter is evocative of the meditative "color field" paintings of Rothko. Dali spent many years living between Spain and the US and considered the US his second home. In the US, he spent his time almost exclusively in New York, most notably at the St. Regis Hotel. As well as an homage to an American painter, Lincoln in Dalivision is also an homage to America, created in America in his room at the St. Regis (See Image Bank Above), in the country that gave him refuge during the turmoil of Civil and World War in Europe. Dalí's ability to capture emotion in its simplest form is evident in this exceptionally executed work, demonstrating "a fascination with perception and the mystery of identity." "Dalí layers multiple optical scales to create two paintings in one. By squinting slightly and so flattening the depth of field, the portrait of Lincoln snaps into view displacing the figure of Gala. Once seen, the image appears at each return." This sculpture would make a great addition to an art collection and enhance most any home, perfect for those who have an affinity for Dalí's works, surrealism, nudes, American History, or figurative art. Not so easily seen from the images is the unique three-dimensionality of the work, with the components of the image projecting out at the viewer. This is a highly collectible work. Forty-one years after it was produced, it is rare to find Dalí bas reliefs...
