# i declare surrealism as pretty fraud!
to paint the unconcious is impossible without it becoming concious thought.

# it was a brave attempt to explore this newly discovered idea
that foundered once it became obvious it was a bunch of artisits pissing about

but i do rate dali as a talented artist, even if he was a better showman than actual painter

# which one is that?
is it one of the ones he done where the things
that make up the picture, rocks etc, combine to make
another image, ie a lady?

# nope
it's just a little pinkish thing with a couple of ladies and a boat, it's small and wonderful

# boy was he a showman!
he once turned up to give a talk dressed in a full diving suit (the brass helmet type).

that's class.

edit: I guess I could have just looked that up on wikipedia. gah! there's no cachet in knowing stuff, nowadays.
