I know many of youmay know of him, even plainly as a painter, though his life's work defeats such simple title.
Besides his painting and designing, out of my own curiosity, and possiby for the yet undiscovered concern of others here, has anyone heard of or better yet read his autobiograpy, "The Secret Life of Salvador Dali"? It is such a wonderful story and work of writing, I had to mention it here! If anyone has read the text, feel free to discuss his "self-greatness". I believe he should be considered one of the most profound and exemplary figures in all of human history, joining in the vein of Da Vinci and many others outside of the arts. please discuss or ask.

Yeah, he's one of the greatest artists who ever lived. He did jewelry sculpture and even dabbled in film
I might have to pick up that book
