Sassun Posted June 9, 2007 Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 most of Dali's collections are prohibited in US due to "not able to understand" them and classified as sadistic in nature. Prohibited ??? As in , banned ???? hmm. strange, though not surprising. Well to be honest some of Dali's paintings are a bit devilish... i do get a strange feeling when i look at some of them. Still , one can be appreciative of his art regardless ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arvestaked Posted June 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 I've never heard anything about Dali's works being banned. There are works I see all the time in the US that are more vulgar and one can say that all abstract art is "less understandable." That said, I hate Dali. He had incredible technical skill but as paintings his works are just stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balaclava Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 I love the Jan van Eyck's'Giovanni Arnolfini and His Bride' posted earlier. Another one of my favorite paintings is Bruegel Elder's 'Hunters in the Snow'. I started liking it even more after watching 'Solaris' (Tarkovsky version). http://farm1.static.flickr.com/130/334733138_f5c839afb2_o.jpg This is splendid!
