The Persistence of Memory by Salvador Dalí 1931
Similar to Picasso’s Les Demoiselles D’Avignon (1907) and Van Gogh’s Starry Night (1889), The Persistence of Memory attracts tourists from all over the world to the Museum of Modern Art as a work of art that has come to symbolise an entire movement. This is how a clock would melt, according to the Surrealist vision, which vividly and unnervingly depicts an unsettling landscape. It would expand, twist, and sag.
In his book Conquest of the Irrational, Dalí wrote, ““My whole ambition in the pictorial domain is to materialize the images of my concrete irrationality with the most imperialist fury of precision.”
