Question: Name the painting/painter!?
I am trying to find the name of an artist!. He is a surrealist painter of the Dali era or before, and the painting is of a room in house, with a ship coming towards it with the sea water entering the room!. On the floor of the room there is a girl reading a book with some other books on fire beside her!. Behind that girl is another looking out of the other side, and seeing a hot air balloon in the air!. Jus to the right of that girl is the face of a man with what looks like green grassy hair!. Finally there is a painting of the Leaning Tower of Pisa hanging on the wall at a slant!.
I have always liked this picture, and have it saved on my PC but I have no idea what it's call or who painted it!.
Any ideas please!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Dominique Appia is a Swiss painter based in Geneva!. His paintings depict imaginative scenarios of cities, landscapes and interiors where familiar elements are juxtaposed as in a dream!. A cathedral becomes a railway station, the Mediterranean gushes up from the Paris Metro, and a room with disappearing children is invaded by different world environments!. 'Entre les trous de la memoire', literally 'Between the holes in the memory' is the best known image by this intriguing and little-known artist!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
