Federico Garcia Lorca & Salvador Dali. Relaunch

Relaunch. The Andalusian landscape with its yellow corn fields, green olive and orange trees and old cork oaks are often mentioned in Lorcas poetry. The Andalusian poet and playwright lived with its parents and three siblings in Fuente Vaqueros, near Granada. In 1909 the family moved to Granada city center. Lorca was very musical and received music lessons as a child from Antonio Segua, a former student of Giuseppe Verdi. Instead of studying music as he wanted, his father convinced him that studying law would be a better choice for his furture. Lorca wrote his first poem at the age of seventeen and also enjoyed drawing. In addition to his lyrical and dramatic work, Lorca also later took guitar lessons from Manuel de Falla. In 1921 he met the composer from Cadiz, who became his fatherly friend. Lorca also admired him as a sensitive and art-critical author. From 1919 - 1928 Lorca lived in the Residencia de Estudiantes; a student residence in Madrid, which was run according to the cosmopolitan principles of the colleges in Oxford and Cambridge. For Lorca this was the ideal place for friendly and intellectual exchange. In 1922, the young, still shy Catalan Salvador Dali arrived at the residence. Luis Bunuel also arrives a little later. Lorca immediately fell in love with Dali, who in turn greatly admired the Spanish poet genius. Dali and Lorca fought against the cultural "decay" of Spanish art. In their passionate friendship, they maintained constant dialogue about the act of creation, modernity and the meaning of art. In the summer of 1925, Lorca visited Dali in the fishing village of Cadaques and was very impressed by that place. Lorca admired Dali's sculpture "Saint Sebastian" and wrote an ode to Salvador Dali. He always wrote to his friends about how much he admired Dali's thinking and his art. In 1928, Lorca worked on publishing the art magazine "Gallo", which also published contributions to Dali's writings and art. Lorca repeatedly enthusiastically describes the people and the incomparable landscape of Andalusia. When the book "Romancero gitano (Gypsy romances) was published at the end of July 1928, the entire Spanish-speaking world was enthusiastic about it. Not so Dali and Bunuel. He received only ridicule and scorn from them. It was the dilemma between tradition (Gypsy romances) and avantgarde (Surrealism). A fact that ultimately led to the breakup of the friendship of the trio "Dali-Lorca-Bunuel". Inspired by Bunuel, who was not unaware of the difficult friendship with Lorca (Dali was not homosexual), Dali went to Paris in 1928 and worked on two scripts with Bunuel. "The Andalusian Dog" was performed very successfully in Paris in 1929. The other film, "The Golden Age", caused a major scandal in 1930 and was no longer shown until 1981. Lorca believed he saw a mockery of himself in "The Andalusian Dog" and was deeply offended. It was the beginning of the end of the difficult relationship between Dali and Lorca. Dali stayed at Paris, joined the Surrealists and met Gala, whom he married in 1934. Gala, who came from Kazan (Russia), was ten years older and very business-minded. Every document, no matter how small, had to be submitted to Gala for approval. It is therefore very likely that Gala destroyed most of the explosive correspondence between Dali and Lorca. Lorca enjoyed great literary success from 1928 onwards. All his works were enthusiastically received by the audience. During his readings, Lorca often accompanied himself on his guitar and sang Andalusian songs. After the break with Dali, Lorca - despite his successes - often fell in to a deep depression. He then decided to travel to America, where he was a student at Columbia University in New York between June 1929 and January 1930. A short trip to Cuba turns out to be a great stroke of luck. He then returned to Spain.On August 13, 1934, Ignacio Sánchez Mejias, Lorca's friend, died after a bullfight. Lorca lamented this loss in a long poem. In April 1931, the Second Republic was proclaimed in Spain, which Lorca was enthusiastic about. He worked obsessively on his two tragedies "The Blood Wedding" and "Bernarda Albas House". He went on a reading tour through Spain and visited also Buones Aires and Montevideo in 1933/34. When the Spanish Civil War begann (1936), Federico Garcia Lorca was arrested in his home in Granada, interrogated for an few days and then literally executed, shot and buried on the way to Vizar (near Granada). The exact location is unknown. Friends had recommended Lorca to travel to Mexico. He agreed, but wanted to say goodby to his family. Which was his dawnfall. Dali remained in loose contact with Lorca even after 1929. The violent death of his friend probably bothered Dali for the rest of his life. So, in memory of his friend Lorca, Dali created the painting "Invisible Afghan with the Appearing of the Face of Garcia Lorca", in 1958.
