Dalí Atomicus

Photographed Halsman met artist Salvador Dalí in the Surrealist circle while he was living in Paris in the 1930s. In the late 1940s, the two men began to collaborate on a variety of photographic projects. Dalí Atomicus, perhaps the most iconic image to emerge from this collaboration.

Halsman photographed some of the most celebrated figures of the mid-20th century. His closely cropped, sharply focused portraits were infused with warmth and a sense of humour, evincing his ability to make his subjects feel comfortable in front of the camera.

Before there was Photoshop, artist Salvador Dalí and photographer, Philippe Halsman collaborated to create this magical, gravity-defying scene. It took 28 tries to achieve the playful weightlessness of Dalí Atomicus, it is one of the most Iconic images of the 20th century.
