DESCRIPTION:
Dal!, like the Renaissance artists, refused to be restricted to one unique form of expression: to that of painting. This edition includes a brief chronology of the Dal! Jewels, detailing their conception in the early 1940's, through to their most recent exhibition.. This pocket-sized edition is a superb introductory guide to Dali's jewels. He wished to go beyond that point by making new discoveries; by trying out new means of expression; one of which being the creation through the combination of precious stones and noble metals
'My aim is to put the art of jewelry into its right perspective: that in which the design of the jewel and the perfection of the work carried bear, as in the Renaissance period, more importance than the insignificant value of the stones themselves.'
