Red Grooms — Dali Salad II
Red Grooms

Dali Salad II

Red Grooms' *Dali Salad II* is a wildly inventive, multi-dimensional work that combines screenprint, lithograph, vinyl cut-outs, and ping-pong balls to create a playful homage to the iconic surrealist Salvador Dalí. Mounted on a white painted museum board and encased in a Plexiglas dome, the piece bursts beyond the traditional boundaries of printmaking, embracing Grooms' signature style of exuberant, theatrical construction. The work captures both the absurdity and celebrity of Dalí's persona, transforming the act of portraiture into a joyful, tactile spectacle.

Medium
Three-dimensional screenprint and lithograph in colors, on Arches paper, Japanese paper, vinyl cut-outs, and ping-pong balls mounted to white painted museum board backing, contained in the original Plexiglas dome frame.
