From his birth in 1904 until his death in 1989 at the age of 85, Salvador Dali's life spanned almost a century of dramatic social and artistic change. "Salvador Dali: Liquid Desire" is a stunningly illustrated and comprehensive retrospective of Dali's work - in a wide variety of media, including painting, drawing, jewellery, sculpture, fashion, cinema, and photography - that traces the evolution of his artistic genius from his earliest years as a 14 year-old Impressionist painter, to his final paintings, created by the artist when he was in his seventies, that address elements of science and physics.
