oh christ...dali is for 7th graders..."oh wow, this image is something and something else at the time! neat! and it's all hyper-realistic like a dutch master, but weird like a dream...i want to fuck my mom, and gala, gala looks like my mom, i'm an asshole" dali has not stood the test of time...there's a great deal more interesting work from the surrealists, and more importantly the dadaists...though maybe i should go to that museum in florida huh? christ with a hypercube...i suck vermeer's dick steve ferrari

salvador dali was/is the savior of modern art. Everything else in comparison is a shallow statement...where as Dali touched something so vast and thoroughly that you cannot be but saturated... (not to mention his sculptures) ...andy warhol had a factory to put icons on things....much modern art needs an explanation and these are usually absent. Isn't it warhol who said everyone gets there 15 minutes of fame...maybe because he knew his was closing fast.... the work of someone like Dali will live forever. a cambells soup can and picture of elvis or monroe is lost already on most people under 20...warhol was "neat" Dali is simply timeless. Pick any time for him to be born....now, 50 years from now... and he'd still have the same effect. I'm not saying warhol was a waste....I think he was more a celebrity than an artist though....right place right time and all that ----------
