%X Insofar as biography and psychic life are mutually dependent, the art product and its author’s life influence one another. The work of art can be read as a symbolic manifestation of its author’s psyche. Salvador Dalí’s autobiographical writings (which run parallel to his abundant visual production) will be read in the light of psychoanalysis, especially the work of Donald Winnicott, Sigmund Freud and Jacques Lacan.
