Salvador Dalí & J. Peter Moore - Les dîners de Gala - 1971

Superb illustrated edition of this extravagant culinary book that embodies the surrealist universe of the artist by translating his pictorial imagination onto the table setting -

Designed as a gastronomic manifesto, the work gathers twelve thematic chapters inspired by splendor and excess, where recipes and illustrations mingle in a baroque celebration of sensuality and pleasure -

Dalí distorts the tradition of cookbooks by introducing bold visual compositions, stylized photographs, and texts imbued with humor and provocation, turning each dish into a work of art -

This book, rare and sought-after, testifies to Dalinian obsession with excess, opulence, and the fusion of the arts, and remains an essential reference for lovers of surrealism and bibliophilia -
