Minh Anh Art Gallery is proud to showcase "Galatea of the Spheres by Salvador Dali", one of the most captivating and scientifically inspired works by the Spanish surrealist master. This piece blends artistic genius with atomic theory, creating a visual symphony that challenges both the eye and the intellect.
Created in 1952, "Galatea of the Spheres" is Dali's tribute to both his wife Gala and his growing fascination with nuclear science. The painting depicts Gala’s bust formed from a collection of floating spheres, arranged with mathematical precision yet infused with romantic reverence. It captures a paradox: the fragmentation of form and the unity of love.
Salvador Dali’s transition into "nuclear mysticism" is best embodied in this painting. Rather than traditional brushstrokes or photorealism, Dali uses spherical elements to symbolize the atomic particles that compose reality. This innovative approach bridges surrealism and scientific theory—making it a timeless example of how art reflects the evolution of human understanding.
Artist: Salvador Dali
Year: 1952
Medium: Oil on canvas
Dimensions: Approx. 65 cm x 54 cm
Style: Nuclear Mysticism / Surrealism
Subject: Gala Dalí, depicted in spheres symbolizing atomic particles
Every sphere in this composition is a representation of matter’s smallest units—atoms. In the early 1950s, Dali became fascinated with the atom as a metaphor for divine construction. Galatea, the subject, isn’t just Dali’s muse but a divine figure constructed from scientific beauty.
Symbolism – A combination of science, spirituality, and love.
Technique – A precise and unusual method using spheres to create a portrait.
Story – A deeply personal dedication to Gala and a reflection of Dali’s intellectual interests.
Timelessness – Continues to fascinate new generations of art lovers and scholars.
