Introduction
Two decades ago, surrealist Master Salvador Dalí pre-signed
several hundred sheets of paper for the express purpose of producing hand-signed
limited edition lithographs. ARA Productions has secured all known remaining
paper
from
Dalí publisher
Levine & Levine, and selected twelve stunning Dalí images in order
to create "The Final Editions of Salvador Dalí." These magnificent
images have never before been published as hand-signed lithographs. Once these
editions are sold out, they will never be available in this form again.
Printing
This magnificent collection of lithographs has been masterfully executed by one of Dalí's original chromistes, Jean-Pierre Remond of Paris. The press that Mr. Remond used is one of only a few remaining old-style lithographic presses still in use in the United States. Master Dalí himself printed many of his lithographic editions on this press.
The Lithographs
This is a collection of twelve images, which are renderings of original Dalí works of art from varying periods of his illustrious career. In "Surrealist Flower" and "Cascade of Souls" we see a marvelous montage of hidden imagery. Other images such as "The Mystery of Diamond Head" are enthralling with Dalí's powerful use of vibrant color. Each of these images is in true Dalínian style; all unique in their enigmatic message of philosophical symbolism.
Authentification
Each of these lithographs was signed, in pencil, by Salvador Dalí. All signatures have been verified by official Dalí archivist, Albert Field, who has taken the extraordinary measure of counter-signing on the reverse of each archival sheet. Each fine art lithograph is shipped with an original certificate of authenticity from the publisher.
