Review: Sebastian's Arrows by Maurer, Dali and Lorca
Sebastian's Arrows: Letters and Mementos of Salvador Dali and Federico Garcia Lorca received glowing praise on the blog Kendall's Quest:
. . .transcendent bliss, despite the "punctured state," despite the "holes," no: because of the holes. Once again my head spins from so much evenement, from the conjunction of ironies, miracles, and large and small joys.
Christopher Maurer's masterful prologue and selection of letters, texts, and images (many generously provided by the Fundacion Gala-Salvador Dali and Fundacion Federico Garcia Lorca), offer compelling and intimate insights into the lives and work of two iconic artists. The two men had a "tragic, passionate relationship," Dali once wrote—a friendship pierced by the arrows of Saint Sebastian.
