As an older person, "The Persistence of Memory" has another meaning now...a memory from in my twenties has changed value from a memory in my 60's....You should be so lucky as to be in your 70's or 80's, You'll get it!

Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto Dalí i Domènech, Marquis of Dalí de Púbol (11 May 1904 - 23 January 1989), known professionally as Salvador Dalí, was a prominent Spanish (Catalan) surrealist born in Figueres, Catalonia, Spain. Dalí was a skilled draftsman, best known for the striking and bizarre images in his surrealist work. His painterly skills are often attributed to the influence of Renaissance masters. His best-known work, The Persistence of Memory, was completed in August 1931. Dalí's expansive artistic repertoire included film, sculpture, and photography, in collaboration with a range of artists in a variety of media. Dalí attributed his "love of everything that is gilded and excessive, my passion for luxury and my love of oriental clothes" to an "Arab lineage", claiming that his ancestors were descended from the Moors. Dalí was highly imaginative, and also enjoyed indulging in unusual and grandiose behavior. His eccentric manner and attention-grabbing public actions sometimes drew more attention than his artwork, to the dismay of those who held his work in high esteem, and to the irritation of his critics.

I enjoy your discussions on various pieces of art. I was surprised that you didn't comment on the theme of spacetime expressed in this painting. Gravity curves the clocks, which seem to be showing different times.

This is the "drippy clock" piece I associate with Dalí. I held my breath to hear what that object in the center was. Based on the title, I don't think of dreams so much as the imperfect human recall and how our recollections are distorted with time. Only in this case, he showed that distortion as referenced to time itself. Idk. I felt deep for a second, lol. Sal Khan cracked me up at the end: "Look, these clocks are stupid..." He kept it too real. Very up north of him. 🤣

In all the analysis I’ve seen of this painting, I’ve never once heard about the “melting away” of time. That’s what I personally get from the melted clocks.

For me it has a connection in spacetime which is popular topics in that era as popularized by Albert Eistein. In fact He is so much inspired by science at that time and recreated it as "The Disintegration of the Persistence of Memory" as a symbolized of his fascinating in Quantum mechanics.

They say that this painting was a painting he did of a time in a doctors office. That left him feeling like, the deflating person, that explains the medical table in the back. And he felt like time was melting away throughout the doctors office. But that's just a couple peoples interpretations but, I like yours and just wanted to comment mine :D

“Dorm room optical illusion” I’m British and having a hard time trying to understand what this and a previous reference to “doom room” means in the context of this painting.

We were describing the painting as a pop culture icon, one that might be commonly found in poster form decorating a college student's bedroom in a dormitory.

thank you! A dormitory in the UK is a large single communal room with many beds in it, like you find in boarding schools or backpacker hostels so I was visualising a large mural with an optical illusion. We call university accommodations “halls”.
