There were two Salvador Dali. The one that everyone knows, the self-proclaimed genius of Cadaqués, and before him, named like him Salvador, his brother died before he was two years old, nine months before his birth. “I lived my entire childhood, with the idea that I carried in my soul his corpse clutched” said Dali. We will be tempted to compare this point in his biography to what we will hear in the program which will follow, the sixth part of “Clés pour un Théâtre-Museum”, a series produced by Daniel Le Comte shortly after the opening of the Dali Museum in Figueras A show in which Dali’s double images, paintings with multiple and hidden images like. The hallucinogenic bullfighter, are questioned through the interventions of the psychoanalyst Claude This, the psychiatrist Henri Ey and the painter Ljuba. Also speaking is Dali’s collaborator and protector of his work, Robert Descharnes.
