David Larkin Libri

Gli autori di questo libro, magistralmente illustrato, hanno svolto uno studio attento e minuzioso, depurando la realtà dalla superstizione e ci rivelano che ci sono fate assai diverse fra loro: ci sono quelle delle acque, quelle dei fiori e quelle degli alberi e ci sono elfi, folletti verdi e coboldi. Di tutte queste creature meravigliose vengono descritti i modi di vivere, le dimore, i passatempi, i capricci, gli scherzi. Un libro che ci fa entrare nel mondo incantato di magiche e incredibili creature.

Picasso definiva Dalì un motore fuoribordo sempre in corsa. L'artista considerava se stesso un genio autorizzato a fare qualsiasi pazzia il suo cervello potesse concepire. Pittore, scultore, scrittore a regista, Salvador Dalì (1904-1989) è stato uno dei più grandi esibizionisti ed eccentrici del secolo scorso ed era accolto da roventi polemiche ovunque andasse. Fu uno dei primi ad applicare le teorie di Freud alla pittura, avvicinandosi all'inconscio con estrema sensibilità ed immaginazione. Questa monografia presenta il grande artista attraverso le sue stesse parole: nel libro troviamo naturalmente tutti i quadri più famosi, dai celeberrimi orologi morbidi alle notissime giraffe in fiamme.
