‘I believe that the moment is near when by a procedure of active paranoiac thought, it will be possible to systematize confusion and contribute to the total discrediting of the world of reality.’ — Salvador Dalí
In 1941 Philippe Halsman met the surrealist artist Salvador Dalí and they began collaborating in the late 1940s. Dali Atomicus explores the idea of suspension depicting three cats flying, a bucket of thrown water, and Salvador Dalí all in mid air. It took 28 attempts for Halsman to be satisfied with the result.
