Spanish artist, painter and sculptor, Salvador Dali is the greatest surrealist artist of the 20th century. He had a sulphurous and an inimitable style. He has created provocative and spectacular works, all with incredible charisma and an overflowing creativity. His surrealist inspiration came from the Catalonian Art Nouveau. The collaboration between Daum and the celebrated artist began in 1968 with "La Fleur du Mal," his first piece in a long series with the Maison. The translucency of Daum's crystal paste offered Dali the appropriate medium through which to express the metamorphoses suggested to him by his "paranoid and critical" perception of reality. In "Débris Automobile Horse," the fragments of a car have created a blind horse with a telephone in its mouth. This piece, inspired by one of Dali's paintings, denounces the era of mechanization. Internationally renowned, he has always been very popular among collectors for similar statement pieces and this surrealistic sculpture depicting a transition of time through a transition in form, is a must-have for all admirers of the artist's works. Handmade in France. Limited edition of 850.
