Freud by Dali ダリによるフロイト 1938
フロイトはダリを真面目に評価しなかったようだ。写実的な絵画に無意識を見出すのがフロイトの志向するもので、ダリのアプローチは誤解を生むと考えたのだろう。ただ、ダリはフロイトを崇拝し、スケッチを残している。
サルヴァドール・ダの人生と芸術に、フロイトはきわめて大きな影響を及ぼした。
シュテファン・ツヴァイクがこの会見を整えた。夫人ガラ(ダリの「グラディーヴァ」)
と、「ナルシスの変貌」を所有する百万長者エドワード・ジェームズとがダリに同行して
いたが、フロイトに見せるために3人はこの絵を持ってきた。
「どのようにしてあの絵を作り出したのか、分析的に研究するのは、非常に面白いでしょ
う」と翌日フロイトはツヴァイクに書き送った。もっとも、ダリにはこう述べている。
「私は古典絵画には無意識を探します--シュールレアリスム絵画に探すのは意識です」
--この発言はダリにとって、シュールレアリスムへの死刑宣告であった。
この会見中にダリはフロイトを素描する許可を得て、その後吸い取り紙に描いたスケ
ッチの習作を生み出した。(1) ダリはこの会見を記した文章で、フロイトは私を凝視し、
私の言葉には無関心に見えた、と述べている--聴力を一時的に失ったせいだったのかも
しれない。

@horbergus well, Dali was hurge to Freud to read Dali's scientific thesis about a paranoid study he did with Lacan, but Freud was interested in Dali's painting. Dalí told Freud, very emphatically, hitting the table: "I want that you read my work about paranoid tonight!!. Freud moved back in his chair, a little amazed, and said: "Never I have seen a prototype of Spanish guy more clearly. He is a fanatic!! (Sorry for my translation, but you have now a better idea (hopefully)

As Freud arrived in London, a young Salvador Dali (1904–1989) sat in a Paris cafe eating a plate of snails. While thumbing through a newspaper he read news of his hero.
He later recalled: “I had just that instant discovered the morphological secret of Freud! Freud’s cranium is a snail! His brain is in the form of a spiral – to be extracted with a needle!”
Dali managed to contact the author Stefan Zweig (1881–1942), an admirer of his own work and a close friend of Freud’s.
Zweig asked whether he would meet “the only painter of genius in our epoch”, explaining that “he is the most faithful and most grateful disciple of your ideas among the artists”. Freud agreed and a meeting was arranged.
As Dali approached Freud’s first London house, 39 Elsworthy Road, in Primrose Hill, accompanied by the author, he noticed something he thought to be significant.
“I saw a bicycle leaning up against the wall, and on the saddle, attached by a string, was a red rubber hot-water bottle which looked full of water, and on the back of the hot-water bottle walked a snail!”
Dali remembered that “we devoured each other with our eyes” as he spoke no German or English.
The artist began to sketch the head of his idol creating an image which resembled both Freud and a snail.
As he continued, Freud whispered in German, “That boy looks like a fanatic. Small wonder that they have civil war in Spain if they look like that”.
Zweig discouraged Dali from showing his final image fearing that it might shock the elderly man.
