Salvador Dali had one wife called Elena Ivanovna Diakonova, but he liked to call her Gala. She came from Russia and died on June the 10th in 1982.

It is said he called it 'Ozzie'.

This may have been true, but it wasn't it's name. It's name was "Babou" and it is reported as such all over the internet. I have not seen anywhere that he called it "Ozzie".

Salvador Dali was born on May 11, 1904

His wife, Gala.

It is impossible to tell, since he signed blank canvases when he was ill in his last years. Those were used for forgeries.

The most famous of Salvador Dali's work is probably the painting 'The Persistence of Memory', (1931). He finished a painting with a similar title, 'The Disintegration of the Persistence of Memory' in 1954. Another painting from 1954 is 'Crucifixion (Corpus Hypercubus)'. His final painting 'The Swallow's Tail' was completed in 1983. He was also active in film and sculpture. Dali donated a sketch of 'The Crucifiction' to Riker's Island Jail in New York City, and collaborated with Alfred Hitchcock on a dream sequence for the movie 'Spellbound'.

Dali was born 1904 and died 1989.

Dalí was a prominent Surrealist painter. He was Spanish Catalan and was born in Figueres, Spain in 1904. His works have bizarre but gripping images while his actual skillset was attributed to the influence of Renaissance masters.

His use of symbolism in his work is extremely important, with common use of elephants, eggs, and other animals. 'The Persistence of Memory' (known as the 'melting clocks painting') symbolized the theory that time is relative and not fixed; he was inspired by a runny piece of cheese on a hot day. Dalí also explored other media and forms of art, such as film, sculpture, and photography.

The picture is showing Christ on the Cross. We appear to be looking at it from God's point of view - looking down. The cross is floating in a dark sky which could be oppressive, but the world represented by the seascape is full of light in contrast. Jesus' head is down but His arms and shoulders show strength so there is a sense of power about Him, as though He is not defeated. There is no blood, nails or thorn of crowns so the sense of violence and despair is not oppressive either. The cross seems to act like a bridge between us and God - as Jesus said He was. 'I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself' John 12:32. Jesus was troubled that His hour of death was near, but knew that this was why He came, so that God's name would be glorified The world appears to be represented by fishermen. Jesus called His disciples to be fishers of men to bring people to know him, for He is the way and the truth and the light. Jesus asks us to serve God by following Him, as He asked the fishermen to do. Christians believe that Christ's death on the cross is God's act of love to us - He so loved the world that he gave us His only son. The body of Jesus on the cross shows us the depth of God's suffering and his humiliation for us. Jesus asks us to follow Him by giving ourselves to God, by putting other people first. He says 'Whoever serves me must follow me and that then the Father's name will be glorified' and people will be able to see God, through Jesus and through us. The painting was voted as Glasgow's most popular, taking 29% of the votes and so it must mean a great deal to some people. I liked it better in St Mungo's Museum, where it was moved whilst its home at Kelvingrove was being rennovated. It was hung over a stairwell and viewers could see it from below and also from above if they stood on the staircase. Dali saw a drawing by a Carmelite friar who had seen Christ on the cross in a vision and he was inspired to paint his picture from the same viewpoint. Dali's painting has received critiscism from the art world because they thought it too mundane after his other works and thought that he was trying to show the Catholic Church that he still had feelings. The painting has been vandalised twice so it must arise passion in some people. Paintings show people what is inside them and makes them think. What do you think when you look at it?

I read this in a biography. He was afraid of ants, because as a kid, he was taking care of an injured bat. The next day, he came back to nurse the bat, but ant were crawling over its dead corpse. Needless to say, it was a disturbing motif, that he later used in his artwork to represent death and decay. For example, in the Persistence of Memory, ants crawl on some of the clocks.

His wife and his dreams.

Dali's skills of painting are often accredited to the influence of Renaissance masters. He was deeply influenced by Sigmund Freud's writings about the unconscious and dreams. Also his association with the French Surrealists influenced him but he was eventually disliked by many in this group.
