Focus on Galacidalacidesoxyribonucleicacid and explain the History.
The painting was commissioned by the New England National Bank of Boston. It was exhibited at Knoedler in 1963 from November 26 to December 26. In the exhibition catalogue, Dalí declared that:At a time when the titles of pictures are rather short (i.e. "Picture No. 1" or "White on White") I call my Hommage to Crick and Watson: GALACIDALACIDESOXIRIBUNUCLEICACID. It is my longest title in one word. But the theme is even longer: long as the genetical persistance of human memory. As announced by the prophet Isaiah—the Saviour contained in God's head from which one sees for the first time in the iconographic history his arms repeating the molecular structures of Crick and Watson and lifting Christ's dead body so as to resuscitate him in heaven.
