Destino by Salvador Dali and Disney (Short Animated Film)

Destino by Salvador Dali and Disney (Short Animated Film) | Third Monk image 2

Surrealist painter Salvador Dali and Disney began their collaboration on Destino (Destiny) in 1945. The animated short was painted for 8 months until the second world war ended the project.

In 1999, Roy E. Disney (nephew of Walt Disney) decided to revive the forgotten project while working on Fantasia 2000. Disney combined traditional (hand-drawn) animation and computer graphics to bring Dali’s surreal vision to life.

Remedios Varo – Surreal Goddess of Psychedelic Art

Remedios Varo - Surreal Goddess of Psychedelic Art | Third Monk image 7

Remedios Varo was a Spanish-Mexican Surrealist painter who believed that randomness and darkness ruled the world. Her art attempts to represent the internal state of the soul externally.

Ephemereal and unusual, Varo’s work resembles the world of dreams, and oddly their similarity to waking life.

Fantasy, abandoned by reason, produces impossible monsters; united with it, she is the mother of the arts and the origin of marvels. – Francisco de Goya.

Varo was good friends with fellow Surrealist Leonora Carrington, and also went to school at San Fernando Fine Arts Academy in Madrid, Salvador Dali’s alma mater.

Pavel Tchelitchew, Surreal Paintings Art Gallery | Third Monk image 2

Pavel Tchelitchew was a Russian-born surrealist painter, set designer and costume designer. Tchelitchew continuously experimented with new styles, eventually incorporating multiple perspectives and elements of surrealism and fantasy into his paintings. His body of work was an exceptionally and hauntingly beautiful contribution to mid-20th-century art.

Combining an interest in alchemy with the anatomical illustrations of the Flemish anatomist and physician Andreas Vesalius (1514–64), he showed the human body, with its veins and arteries, as transparent, in order to suggest the transcendence of the spirit over material substance.

Salvador Dali Psychedelic Art Compilation (Photo Gallery, Video)

Salvador Dali Psychedelic Art Compilation (Photo Gallery, Video) | Third Monk image 7

Salvador Dali, less commonly known by his full name: Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto Dalí i Domenech, 1st Marques de Dalí de Pubol, was one of the most prolific surrealist painters of all-time.

Highly imaginative, Dali joined his love of luxury with his eccentric manner of comport to create his truly unique art. Dali’s expansive artistic pursuits include film, sculpture, photography, architecture, and writing, all in addition to his painting.

Catalunya’s town of Figueres is home to the trailblazing artist Salvador Dalí and the museum that displays his life’s work. The nearby fishing village Cadaqués features another museum of sorts: Dalí’s home, where even the furniture is a work of provocative and playful surrealist art.
