The Persistence of Memory, Salvador Dalí, Mexico City, February 2018
.
Wandering around the streets of Mexico City one can chance on the fascinating and unexpected. So it was that in February 2018 I came upon a collection of Salvador Dalí’s surrealist sculpture installed in a small park near the Zocalo.
.
Perhaps the most prominent surrealist of the 20th century (certainly the most well-known,) Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto Dalí i Domènech, was born on May 11, 1904 in Figueres, Catalonia, Spain. Dalí, a skilled draftsman whose skills are often attributed to the influence of Renaissance masters (including Raphael, Bronzino, Vermeer and Velázquez), is best known for his striking and bizarre images. His best-known work, “The Persistence of Memory,” a surrealistic image of soft, melting pocket watches, was completed in August 1931. Dalí's expansive repertoire included film, sculpture, and photography, sometimes in collaboration with other renowned artists including Picasso, Miró, Buñuel and Man Ray.
.
Dalí, also known for indulging in unusual, grandiose behavior, dismayed his admirers and critics alike, as his attention-grabbing public actions overshadowed his artwork. Yet in a strange twist of irony, Dalí once said, “There is no way I’m going back to Mexico. I can’t stand to be in a country that is more surrealist than my paintings.”
.
On the morning of January 23, 1989, while listening to his favorite record of Tristan and Isolde, Dalí died of heart failure.

My Dali Collection prints "Persistence of Time" Harmon embossed signature & 2 edges
New edition to my Salvador Dali collection.
This ones an "after" Dali lithograph.
I bought it because I wanted to get any of his prints that had this one graphic editors markings , especially the finger print shown.
It was one of three prints that came up on ebay a while ago (from the same seller) -
All of them had the finger print.
I actually was surprised to get this as cheap as I did as seller contacted me and sold it to me as a "second chance" offer.
I lost the auction but he sold it at my 2nd highest bid price.
The graphic editor ( Harmon) got Dali's finger print after Dali could no longer sign prints due to his illness , before death and used them to allegedly authenticate the lithographs.
Actually this shouldn't be considered an "original" Dali litho as I am sure he didn't do anything as far as the production of it ,
including allowing the size changes or additional images added to the original "Persistence of Memory"

This year 2012, they are hanging on as usual but the buds will burst early, I think.

Did you know?
Assateague wild ponies have roamed the beaches, pine forest, and salt marsh of Assateague Island since the 1600's. Assateague Island National Seashore has a combined total of over 300 wild ponies in Maryland and Virginia. Some people believe the horses arrived on Assateague's shores when a Spanish galleon ship (with a cargo of horses) sank offshore. Others believe the horses arrived by early colonial settlers that allowed them to graze there. A Spanish ship wreck was discovered recently in the waters off Assateague which lends credit to the first theory.

The Nikkorex Auto 35 was a consumer level leaf shutter SLR offered by Nikon in the early 60s. It was not particularly successful, though it did offer an innovative (for the time) automatic aperture feature.
In appearance it was very similar to the Pentina, but that’s about all they have in common. I enjoy restoring “parts” cameras, but some are more of a challenge than others. This one proved to be a real hair puller, and even by the time I got to 5 bodies I had managed no success, mostly due to the devilishly frustrating linkage between the body, mirror return, shutter, and meter/aperture interface. The 6th try resulted in a fully functional camera, but mainly because the repairs did not require removal of the lens body. Works great, and now I’m free to move on! (Except for this pesky urge to resurrect those piles of parts back into a couple of more!)
