Els referents catalans i empordanesos de Salvador Dalí Authors Mariona Seguranyes Historiadora de l’art i doctora en humanitats Abstract Salvador Dalí neix a Figueres, una ciutat oberta amb uns ideals republicans, en el moment de la creació del mite de l’Empordà com a cor de Catalunya, tal com descriu aquest indret el poeta Joan Maragall. Els amics del seu pare, el notari Salvador Dalí Cusí, li fan els primers encàrrecs, en què emergeixen símbols de l’Empordà, com les sardanes. És a Figueres on també sorgeix el Dalí revolucionari,íntim amic de Martí Vilanova i Jaume Miravitlles. I el paisatge de l’Empordà, amb el seu cel blau ras, és el motor de la seva obra creativa. Els referents catalans i empordanesos són presents al llarg de tota la seva trajectòria i esdevenen l’essència de la seva obra; avui, molts d’ells són universals gràcies al geni empordanès. Els anirem revelant a poc a poc.
