[Art Encounters 01] • The World Behind the Door

Salvador Dali is the most famous of all the surrealist artists and he himself is better-known than any of his paintings. If you ever wondered where he got all those strange occasionally crazed always surreal images this fantasy by 5-time Hugo winner Mike Resnick tells you of the secret world behind the door of his closet a world where cause follows effect where nothing is quite as it seems and where Dali's paintings would pass for absolute realism. It is also the world where a young girl named Jinx shows Dali how to achieve the notoriety that has thus far eluded him.
