ReviewsWith a revitalized public interest in alternative spiritualities that reach beyond the patriarchies of monotheistic religions, this tarot feels more relevant than ever., Combining the occult with his own unmistakable sensibility, Dalí's tarot is a pastiche of old-world art, surrealism, kitsch, Christian iconography and Greek and Roman sculpture., Searching for an artistic reading? You'll certainly find it here - and they won't look half bad on your shelf, either., Images of classic art and Christian symbolism with a signature Dalí twist... a very surreal deck of cards.
Edition DescriptionMultilanguage edition
SynopsisLegend has it that when preparing props for the James Bond film Live and Let Die , producer Albert Broccoli commissioned Surrealist maestro Salvador Dalí to create a custom deck of tarot cards. Inspired by his wife Gala, who nurtured his interest in mysticism, Dalí eagerly got to work, and continued the project of his own accord when the contractual deal fell through. The work was published in a limited art edition in 1984 that has since long sold out, making Dalí the first renowned painter to create a completely new set of cards. Drawing on Western masterpieces from antiquity to modernity (including some of his own), Dalí seamlessly combined his knowledge of the arcane with his unmistakable wit. The result is a surreal kaleidoscope of European art history. TASCHEN resurrects all 78 cards in a fresh celebration of Dalí's inimitable custom set, complete with a booklet by renowned German tarot author Johannes Fiebig offering an introduction to Dalí's life and the project's making-of, a comprehensive explanation of each card's composition, its meaning, and practical advice, step-by-step instructions on how to perform readings, and a jargon-free approach simplifying tarot for the newcomer., Legend has it that when preparing props for the James Bond film Live and Let Die, producer Albert Broccoli commissioned Surrealist maestro Salvador Dalí to create a custom deck of tarot cards .

    This version of Dali’s tarot is gorgeous & 100% like new. Bigger than expected packaged with instructive book. I had the very nice red velvet Dali deck before but no book so I am glad to find this.
