"Si dice che quando una persona guarda le stelle è come se volesse ritrovare la propria dimensione dispersa nell’universo."

Sunday Dalí: An Allegory of an American Christmas, 1934. Oil on canvas.
Despite our American post-9/11 mentality, the airplane flying into the egg is not a premonition of the terrorist attack. The egg is a symbol of fertility, and, in this case, it symbolizes Dalí’s new-found influx of creativity following his immigration to America.
Many artists fled Europe at this time as tension was rising between Hitler’s Germany and the rest of Europe. Most of these artists, including Dalí, settled in New York City propelling the city in front of Paris to the forefront of the art world.

Sunday Dalí: Book Transforming Itself into a Nude Woman, 1940. Oil on canvas, 16¼ x 20⅛; inches. Private collection.
This painting was hidden from public view from 1941 until 2004. As a result it is not included in Robert Descharnes catalogue raisonné or in any other exhibition prior to that point.
The open book in the foreground is in the process of transforming into a reclining nude woman. The knife separates the woman’s buttocks. A similar theme can be seen in the 1936 Autumn Cannibalism.
