BARCELONA, SPAIN.-Between April 11 and 28 of 1926, Salvador Dalí travelled for the first time to Paris. Thanks to the help of painter Manuel Ángeles Ortiz, he visited Pablo Picassos studio, whom he considered his main artistic influence. Dalí told Picasso: I have come to see you before going to the Louvre. Picasso responded, You did right to do so. This is where their relationship begins. A new book titled Lettres à Picasso (1927-1970), published by Le Cabinet des Lettres, is based on a preliminary study by Laurence Madelaine.
The small book publishes for the fist time a group of almost thirty post cards as well as some in telegram format and also a letter, all of which are kept at the Musée Picasso in Paris. Dalí uses all possible languages (Catalonian, Spanish and French) and using his peculiar spelling.
Laurence Madeleine, who last year published a group of letters sent by Gertrude Stein to Picasso, was very surprised that there is no letter from Picasso to Dalí. He never answered his letters.
