For almost half a century Dali has domineted surrealism, as a result in part of his highly develo ped talents for self-advertisement. Few great artits of the 20th century have so exposed themselves to the glare of puplicity, yet the real meaning and aims ofDalls art remain concealed and misunderstood. To many people he is a master of the lurid and bizarre, while to others the photograpic realism of his exquisitely finished style gives his paintings the disturbing conviction of a waking nightmare.
