The translation to the text at the bottom in english means "This is not a pipe." Not sure what to make of this painting by I'm sure Sherlock would be proud

The Persistence Of Memory has become one of Dali's most well known pieces. Finished in 1931, the original piece stands at 10x13. Known mostly for his bizarre personalities then his paintings; this painting and Dali himself have been caricatured by many artists. The painting itself takes it's inspiration from Dali struggling to complete a Port Lligat landscape. After setting his sights on some melting Camembert cheese, this became the base for the soft watches (http://20thcenturyart.suite101.com/article.cfm/salvador_dalis_the_persistence_of_memory ).

It's weird how such simple designs can still catch your eye. This is a movie poster for the 1982 documentary film "Wild Style", the first ever motion picture to every be based around the hip-hop culture. Only thing that kind of bother me about this piece is that they didn't use the "wild style" form of graffiti but more of a "throw up" form.
