SALVADOR DALÍ I DOMÈNECH (Figueres, Girona, 1904 - 1989). "Christ in perspective". 1972. Ink on offset paper. Signed, dated and dedicated. Measurements: 32 x 40 cm; 55 x 82 cm (frame). Original drawing on paper that Dalí made in 1972, twenty years later than his painting "Christ of St. John of the Cross", where the crucified is also seen foreshortened, from a zenithal point of view. Dalí explores in these versions ways of suggesting the celestial contemplation of Jesus' suffering, assuming the point of view of angels or a divine entity. In the 1951 painting, the title referred to the 16th century Spanish mystic and poet known for his writings on the union of the soul with God through spiritual love. The choice of this title suggests a connection between Dalí's vision of crucifixion and deep spirituality. In the 1970s, Dalí, who was always moved by a deep spirituality, resumed his plastic reflections on themes of faith, redemption, the afterlife and the divine nature. Painter and sculptor, Salvador Dalí was one of the leading exponents of the surrealist movement. His work greatly influenced the course of surrealism during the twenties and thirties, being acclaimed as the creator of the paranoiac-critical method, an essential combination of the real with the imaginary. Most of his production is gathered in the Dalí Theater-Museum in Figueras, followed by the collection of the Salvador Dalí Museum in St. Petersburg (Florida), the Reina Sofía in Madrid, the Salvador Dalí Gallery in Pacific Palisades (California), the Espace Dalí in Montmartre (Paris) or the Dalí Universe in London.
