Dali was a master of the absurd. The combination of crustacean and old style
telephone is very striking.
This is not a painting – the plaster lobster has been
attached to a telephone.
My attention was drawn to this work by a huge doorstop
of a book I got from the library – The Art Book from Phaidon Press. Get it out if you have strong enough
muscles. There are 579 pages, each
dedicated to one work by an artist. The
artists are in alpha order so you get interesting juxtapositions between modern
art and old masters.
I love Dali's works!! I've visited the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida. It's worth a visit if you are a Dali fan.
