The Great Masturbator: Conversations With Salvador Dali
About this book
By 1970, artist Salvador Dali had transcended his own past to reinvent himself as the "Divine Dali" - the living embodiment of Surrealism, a master showman, eccentric world traveller, and accumulator of increasingly vast amounts of wealth. One of Dali's favoured haunts at this time was the Hotel Meurice in Paris, where he was often to be found holding court, surrounded by stark naked women, exotic wild animals, and other retainers. THE GREATˆMASTURBATOR is a record of ten conversational interviews held with Dali at this time, in which he provides his inimitable opinions on matters ranging from Modern and Classic art to the Beatles, sodomy, and scientific research into suspended animation. The result is a unique insight into the mind of one of the 20th century's most original artists and cross-disciplinary theorists. This special ebook edition includes a unique bonus feature, "The Erotic World Of Salvador Dali", comprising 5 erotic colour photos and photo-collages by Dali, dating from 197?.
