FROM   ENCYCLOPEDIA BRITANNICA "As an art
student in Madrid and Barcelona, Dalí assimilated
a vast number of artistic styles and displayed
unusual technical facility as a painter. It was
not until the late 1920s, however, that two
events brought about the development of his
mature artistic style his discovery of Sigmund
Freud's writings on the erotic significance of
subconscious imagery, and his affiliation with
the Paris Surrealists, a group of artists and
writers who sought to establish the "greater
reality" of man's subconscious over his reason.
To bring up images from his subconscious mind,
Dalí began to induce hallucinatory states in
himself by a process he described as "paranoiac
critical."
105
...  from 1929 to 1937 he produced the paintings
which made him the world's best-known Surrealist
artist. He depicted a dream world in which
commonplace objects are juxtaposed, deformed, or
otherwise metamorphosed in a bizarre and
irrational fashion. Dalí portrayed these objects
in meticulous, almost painfully realistic detail
and usually placed them within bleak, sunlit
landscapes that were reminiscent of his
Catalonian homeland. ....   the most famous of
these enigmatic images is "The Persistence of
Memory" (1931), in which limp, melting watches
rest in an eerily calm landscape. With the
Spanish director Luis Buñuel, Dalí also made two
Surrealistic films-- Un Chien andalou (1928 An
Andalusian Dog) and L'Âge d'or (1930 The Golden
Age)--that are similarly filled with grotesque
but highly suggestive images.
106
In the late 1930s Dalí switched to painting in a
more academic style under the influence of the
Renaissance painter Raphael, and as a consequence
he was expeled from the Surrealist movement.
Thereafter he spent much of his time designing
theatre sets, interiors of fashionable shops, and
jewelry, as well as exhibiting his genius for
flamboyant self-promotional stunts in the United
States, where he lived from 1940 to 1955. In
the period from 1950 to 1970 Dalí painted many
works with religious themes, though he continued
to explore erotic subjects, to represent
childhood memories, and to use themes centring on
his wife, Gala. Notwithstanding their technical
accomplishments, these later paintings are not as
highly regarded as the artist's earlier works."
