historical importance (Dali influenced more than one revolutionary filmmaker, i.e. Ray; Bunuel; Artaud; Cocteau) and the absolute quality of their artistry; in Dali's case, superb draftsmanship. He also was instrumental in bringing Freud onto the palette and giving the subconscious a role in painting. No Dali, quite simply, no Arshile Gorky.
