he was an art student... he was always very brilliant at art. He was expelled from art school for a time because he was cheeky and believed no one there was able to evaluate him properly, since geniuses are often misunderstood. Art establishments are not always very fond of rebels...it can be quite a rigid system...He was part of the surralist movement, headed by people like writer Andre Breton, of which Miro, Max Ernst and Magritte were part of, too. This was the time period when freud had been developing his theories on dreams and how important they were. His work Persistence of Memory is one of the most famous, depicting melting, stretched watches lying around. His own style made him famous, with its distinct dream-like quality that created a world of its own on canvas. His wife Gala was a big support and inspiration to him, he was a nervous neurotic person before he met her, she provided him with stability.

Dali was a member of the surrealist movement...started by Andre Breton. Ironically he was excommunicated from the group for being too materialistic.

Surrealism.
A perfect example is his painting "The Execution of the Citizens of Madrid." This shows a horrifying picture of Dali's fellow citizens being executed by an army, pointing out injustice in the nation. In all of his paintings, there is a dream-like view with a comment on society.

Surrealism. It is based on psychic automatism, which means the attempt made to express in any way the true function of thought; the depiction of thought without any moral, logical, or aesthetic preoccupation. In other words, whatever that comes first in your head, no matter how absurd it may be, write, speak, or draw it!
