There was nothing ordinary about Salvador Dali . . . nothing ordinary about his life and nothing ordinary about his art. So, it is not surprising that a photographic portrait of Salvador Dali should reflect the eccentric nature of his life and work. Perhaps most famous of the variety of unusual photographs made of Salvador Dali is the most unusual Dali Atomicus by Philippe Halsman. How was this impossible-looking photograph made? The photograph was made in the New York Studio of Philippe Halsman in 1948. The photograph was taken with Halsmans 4 x 5 format twin lens reflex camera. In order to make the photograph, the easel, two Dali paintings, and the step stool were suspended from the ceiling by strings. So these items were probably quite light, or the string was quite strong! Halsmans wife held the chair in the air. Note that one leg of the chair is not in the picture, because Halsmans wife is holding one leg. So, all of these items while appearing to be part of the massive confusion and motion of the picture, are actually fixed in place. The parts that are moving, and that required the precise timing are the cats, water and Dali himself. Yes, the cats are in fact flying through the air as they appear to be in the picture. The timing sequence was pretty simple. Halsman began to count, and on three his assistants threw the cats and water, and then on four Dali jumped in the air while Halsman took the photograph. Of course to get the perfect picture took not only careful timing but good luck as well. After taking a picture, Halsman would immediately go to the dark room and develop it (imagine that digicamera users!). He would then come back and try again. And again. It took a number of tries to get the perfect timing and perfect picture. Halsman wrote that it took six hours and twentyeight throws to get the picture that we now know as Dalis atomicus. Halsman indicated that the cats were not harmed in the making of the photograph. Insane.
Philippe Halsman was a Latvian-born American portrait photographer. Born to a Jewish family, Halsman studied electrical engineering in Dresden. In September 1928, Halsman went on a hiking tour in the Austrian Alps with his father, Morduch, who died

from severe head injuries. Halsman was sentenced to four years imprisonment for patricide, but the circumstances were never clarified. Halsman consequently left Austria for France. He began contributing to fashion magazines such as Vogue and soon gained a reputation as one of the best portrait photographers in France. When France was invaded, Halsman fled to Marseille and he eventually managed to obtain a U.S.visa. In 1941 Halsman met the surrealist artist Salvador Dal and they began to collaborate in the late 1940s. In 1951 Halsman was commissioned by NBC to photograph various popular comedians of the time including Milton Berle, Sid Caesar, Groucho Marx, and Bob Hope. While photographing the comedians doing their acts, he captured many of the comedians in mid air, which went on to inspire many later jump pictures of celebrities including the Ford family, The Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Marilyn Monroe, Mara Flix and Richard Nixon.
