Salvador Dalí was born on May 11, 1904, in the Town of Figueres, in the Empordà Region, close to the French Border in Catalonia, Spain. Dalí’s Older Brother, also named Salvador (born October 12, 1901), had Died of Gastroenteritis Nine Months Earlier, on August 1, 1903. His Father, Salvador Dalí i Cusí, was a Middle Class Lawyer and Notary whose Strict Disciplinary Approach was Tempered by his Wife, Felipa Domenech Ferrés, who Encouraged her Son’s Artistic Endeavors. When he was Five, Dalí was Taken to his Brother’s Grave and Told by his Parents that he was his Brother’s Reincarnation, a Concept which he came to Believe. Of his Brother, Dalí said, “.(..) We Resembled Each Other like Two Drops of Water, but we had Different Reflections.” He “was Probably a First Version of Myself but Conceived Too Much in the Absolute.” Images of his long Dead Brother would Reappear Embedded in his Later Works, including “Portrait of My Dead Brother” (1963).
Dalí also had a Sister, Ana María, who was Three Years Younger. In 1949, she published a Book about her Brother, Dalí As Seen By His Sister. His Childhood Friends included Future FC Barcelona Footballers Sagibarba and Josep Samitier. During Holidays at the Catalan resort of Cadaqués, the Trio played Football Together.
Dalí attended Drawing School. In 1916, Dalí also Discovered Modern Painting on a Summer Vacation Trip to Cadaqués with the Family of Ramon Pichot, a Local Artist who made Regular Trips to Paris. The next year, Dalí’s Father Organized an Exhibition of his Charcoal Drawings in their Family Home. He had his First Public Exhibition at the Municipal Theater in Figueres in 1919.
In February 1921, Dalí’s Mother died of Breast Cancer. Dalí was 16 Years Old; he later said his Mother’s Death “Was The Greatest Blow I had Experienced in my Life. I worshipped her. (…) I could Not Resign Myself to the Loss of a Being on Whom I Counted To Make Invisible the Unavoidable Blemishes of my Soul.” After her Death, Dalí’s Father Married his Deceased Wife’s Sister. Dalí did Not Resent this Marriage, because he had a Great Love and Respect for his Aunt.
In 1922, Dalí Moved into the Residencia de Estudiantes (Students’ Residence) in Madrid and Studied at the Academia de San Fernando (School of Fine Arts). Dalí already Drew Attention as an Eccentric and Dandy. He had Long Hair and Sideburns, Coat, Stockings, and Knee Breeches in the Style of English Aesthetes of the Late 19th Century.
At the Residencia, he became Close Friends with (among Others) Pepín Bello, Luis Buñuel, and Federico García Lorca. The Friendship with Lorca had a Strong Element of Mutual Passion, but Dalí Rejected the Poet’s Sexual Advances.
However it was his Paintings, in which he Experimented with Cubism, that Earned him the Most Attention from his Fellow Students. At the time of these Early Works, Dalí probably Did Not Completely Understand the Cubist Movement [According to Whom?]. His only Information on Cubist Art came from Magazine Articles and a Catalog Given to him by Pichot, since there were No Cubist Artists in Madrid at the Time. In 1924, the Still Unknown Salvador Dalí Illustrated a Book for the First Time. It was a Publication of the Catalan Poem Les Bruixes de Llers (“The Witches of Llers“) by his Friend and Schoolmate, Poet Carles Fages de Climent. Dalí also Experimented with Dada, which Influenced his Work throughout his Life.
