Chaos at the dinner table⁠—or is it? “Nature Morte Vivante (Still Life-Fast Moving)” appears chaotic initially because of the multitude of disparate objects. However, the objects obey a greater mathematical order derived from the golden section.

The composition in this Masterwork is a post-atomic variation on Dutch artist Floris Van Schooten’s (1590-1655) Table with Food (1617). Dalí’s painting is shattered into individual objects that float and rotate in space, disintegrating yet held in a suspended balance.  This process has also been termed corpuscular, describing how Dalí breaks down the composition into smaller particles. #TheDali #Masterworks
