The Hallucogenic Torreador, by Salvadore Dali. 1968-70
Here in this later painting, Dali uses the "paranoic-critical method to unite his entire symbolic alphabet. Note the colors of the Spanish flag, upper left corner the image of Dali's wife Gala, the landscape of Cabo de Creuss (Dali's birthplace), 28 Venus de Milos, the toreodor image embedded in the Venus in white, & the small boy in the sailor suit in the lower right (indicating Dali as a child). His paranoic-critical method includes 3 questions while viewing art: 1. What do I see? What does it represent? What does it mean?
