"1974 und 1976 erscheinen bei Art & Valeur zwei große Editionen mit Graphiken Dalís: Moise et le monothéísme von Sigmund Freud sowie Alchimie des philosophes mit einer Sammlung von alchimistischen Texten. Dalís Interesse für das erste Thema gründet nicht nur auf dem psychoanalytischen Text, sondern auch auf eine sehr persönliche Erinnerung an seinen Vater: 'Er hatte bei aller Strenge denoch etwas Rührendes an sich. Seine Unruhe verriet sich an einem Tick. Er nahm eine Haarsträhne zwischen Daumen und Zeigefinger und zwirbelte sie zu einer Spirale, die an der Seite des Kopfes wie ein Horn in die Höhe stand, und mit seiner gefurchten Stirn und seiner majestätischen Haltung wurde er dann zum erleuchteten, mit göttlicher Autorität ausgestatteten Moses.' " [abbr. transl.:"Two large editions with prints by Dali were published by Art & Valeur in 1974 and 1976: 'Moise et le monothéísme' by Sigmund Freud and 'Alchimie des philosophes' with a collection of alchemist texts. Dalí's interest in the first topic is not only based on the psychoanalytic text, but also on personal memories of his father: 'Despite all his strictness, there was still something heart-warming about him. ... His gestures and appearance ... and his majestic demeanour reminded of an enlightened Moses, endowed with a certain divine authority.' "] (Michler/L. I, 23) - A lectern like rack made of plexiglass, especially made for representative purposes of this large-format de-luxe-edition, is available by request.
