Dalí: In Verse
Salvador Dalí is one of the greatest and most enigmatic creative visionaries throughout history. He has excelled in all areas of art and culture from creating strokes on a canvas to setting the scene behind a camera. He has done it all. Within this book Sarah Hobbs tells the narrative story of a selection of Dalí's paintings, uniquely through verse.
“Dormant goose bumps, beware! This poetry sees beyond the obvious.”
~ Paul Chimera, Dalí Historian ~
“DALÍ: In Verse is more than just an appreciation of Salvador Dali. It is a celebration of his work. Sarah Hobbs captures the emotion and complexity of Dali's paintings, yet her poetry stands alone. DALÍ: In Verse can be enjoyed without knowledge of Dali, but for those that are familiar, it adds another dimension to the artist's work, picking up where he left off.”
~ Amy Guidry, Contemporary Surrealist Artist ~
