Dali. Tarot

Beskrivelse

Discover the surreal world of Salvador Dali through a unique tarot deck inspired by mysticism and European art history. This collection revives the original 78 cards created by Dali, blending his artistic genius with tarot symbolism.

A stunning tarot deck merging Dali’s surreal art with mystical tradition, accompanied by expert insights from Johannes Fiebig.

Legend has it that for the James Bond film Live and Let Die, producer Albert Broccoli asked Salvador Dali to design a custom tarot deck. Motivated by his wife Gala’s fascination with mysticism, Dali embraced the project wholeheartedly and continued working on it even after the contract was canceled. This remarkable deck was first released as a limited art edition in 1984 and quickly sold out, marking Dali as the first famous painter to create an entirely new tarot set.

Dali’s cards draw inspiration from Western art masterpieces spanning from ancient times to the modern era, including some of his own creations. His deep knowledge of the mystical combined with his signature wit results in a surreal and vibrant kaleidoscope of European art history.

TASCHEN brings all 78 cards back to life in a fresh edition, accompanied by a booklet from renowned German tarot expert Johannes Fiebig. Inside, you’ll find:

• An introduction to Dali’s life and the story behind the tarot project
• A detailed explanation of each card’s design, meaning, and practical guidance
• Step-by-step instructions for performing tarot readings
• A clear, jargon-free approach that makes tarot accessible to beginners
