Salvador Dalí’s Aesthetic theory

Abstract

The following text deals with some of the main ideas which articulate Salvadors Dali aesthetic philosophy. By doing so, it also re-vindicates the philosophical fertility of the ideas of this universal Catalan author, whose work unfortunately, has not yet been fully researched. The text outlines his philosophy of creativity, which yields moral and metaphysical implications. It is the result of the convergence of his own philosophy of vision and desire with a Catalan philosophical tradition, suggested here, initiated by Ramon Llull, which would be based on the thinking of the absolute from the limitless relation of its parts.

Keywords: Dalinian philosophy, Dalí, Dalinian literature.
