Salvador Dalí was a wealthy artist during his lifetime. He utilized the power of media attention to gain fame and recognition, paving the way for later media savvy artists like Pop artist Andy Warhol. Two museums dedicated to his life and work opened while he was still living. Dalí’s works continue to be relevant and sought after, fetching increasingly high prices in art auction houses throughout the world today.
