Surrealist Master Salvador Dali often peppered religious, mythological, and Freudian imagery throughout his artwork. For example, Dali once explained that his painting Dream Caused by the Flight of a Bee expresses “for the first time in images Freud’s discovery of the typical dream with a lengthy narrative, the consequence of the instantaneousness of a chance event which causes the sleeper to wake up.”
This famous painting, which is currently on view at the Dali Theatre-Museum in Figueres from February 9 through May 2, 2010, continues to be studied by art scholars and the general public alike. An intriguing analysis of the work’s imagery appeared in ArtDaily and has been reposted at the Park West Gallery Art Blog.
In addition to the analysis, an excerpt from Provenance is Everything has also been reposted. In it, Bernard Ewell, considered the foremost authority on the art of Salvador Dali, discusses the artist’s connection with Freud.
