The charismatic eccentric Dali was not one of the modest ones, well aware of his versatile artistic talents, and considering himself a genius. "Every morning when I wake up, I am overwhelmed by the indescribable joy that I am Salvador Dali," he wrote. His oft-repeated words "Surrealism is me!" have also gone down in history. Interestingly, in 1973 he published his own cookbook, Les Diners de Gala. It's basically a guide to Surrealist cooking, featuring Dali's favourite painting motifs: eggs, lobsters, and snails. However, this mad genius of his era had an unusual weakness - he was panic-stricken about... grasshoppers.

Three-dimensional depth of image

Screw Art is made up of thousands of screws which, screwed close together into a fir board but at different depths, create an extraordinary three-dimensional sculptural relief. Each of the 70,000 screw heads becomes a tiny steel canvas for the artists. The multitude of colours, clever design, fascinating chiaroscuro, and masterful precision give the works, inspired by the works of the great masters, a new dimension. Industrial screws turn out to be a graceful material in the hands of the young talents, and the steel rawness is transformed into delicate paintings.
