Lorca, Buñuel, DalÃ: Fable of Friends
KHC RS 105
In the 1920s, three young men from the same university residence --a poet, a painter, and a film maker--tested boundaries between the arts. At the Residencia de Estudiantes, Madrid, Federico GarcÃa Lorca drew Salvador Dalà into the world of poetry, and Dalà attracted Lorca to the world of art. Painter and poet were fascinated by the films of Luis Buñuel: Dalà collaborated with him on Un chien andalou and Lorca responded with a surrealist filmscript of his own. This course considers the differences between the verbal and the visual image and follows the three friends' uneasy search for common ground.
