Here is a great student example:
Dining with Dali
When looking back on notable moments in my life I always remember the day that I got to spend time with one of the great famous artists, Salvador Dali. It was later in his life and he had only just returned to his original home of Figueres. I happened to be sitting in a small place grabbing a bite when I saw him come in. This was in his later life so he came in his wheel chair, but his mustache gave him away no matter how far he was. I never intended on speaking to him but he happened to sit at the table beside me. After introducing myself he seemed to enjoy the extra company and let me talk with him a bit while he waited for his order to come out. I Think what swayed him was that I knew enough French to introduce myself in that Language. Despite himself being Spanish born, his primary language was actually French.
I started off my mini-interview by asking the simple question of “how was it like growing up?”. “well having been raised by my mother who was catholic and a father who was very much an Atheist, you can expect me to come out fairly interesting” we both laughed as he continued “My mother, who I truly loved, had always been supportive in my artistic endeavors. Me and my father however did not always see eye to eye but even he could not deny my talent. He eventually took me from the regular schools and transferred me to Hispano-French School of the Immaculate Conception. This is where I first began learning my French” The waiter came over and got us some water before we continued with our conversation. “So, how did you and Gala end up meeting?”. He grinned as he wasn’t at all shy about his antics,” well we actually met when she and her husband Paul Éluard came to visit me about my work. She and I eventually got to liking each other and had an affair for a while before she left him for me.” Having already known about his somewhat open relationship with Gala, I was still amazed at out nonchalantly he seemed to say it. Looking at the time I thought of one more thing to ask him as I had already talked his ear off enough, that and I could see his food being brought by a waiter from the back.” One more thing I just have to ask, what were you thinking when you created the Persistence of Time piece?”. He chuckled before replying,” Yes, one of my more notable works. The soft watches are an unconscious symbol of the relativity of space and time, a Surrealist meditation on the collapse of our notions of a fixed cosmic order. I had a few theories in this time with Hardness and softness that I liked to put into my art” As his meal came over, I quickly thanked him and gave each other a wave goodbye as I left. Something that only took a few minutes of my day will always be treasured by me for a life time.
