Dalí

'Baudoin is a revered comics master in his native France, and his mercifully clear-eyed vision of Dalí's imperfections is welcome…' - Publishers Weekly

A superb graphic novel which captures in beautifully expressive detail the life of one of the world's most instantly recognisable painters

Genius, eccentric, exhibitionist: there is no shortage of adjectives to describe the great surrealist painter Salvador Dali. Yet this iconic artist and controversial thinker remains a figure shrouded in mystery. Plunging into the Spanish painter's unbridled, fantastical universe, graphic novelist Edmond Baudoin guides us on the trail of a man known as much for his talent for self-promotion as for his bold and extraordinary work.

He emerges with a convincing personal vision of the man behind the artist. Commissioned by the Pompidou Centre, Paris, Dali is a graphic novel of rare brilliance, which captures in beautifully expressive detail the life of one of the world's most instantly recognisable painters.
