Crucifixion (Corpus Hypercubus)
''Crucifixion (Corpus Hypercubus)'' is a 1954 oil-on-canvas painting by Salvador Dalí which depicts the Crucifixion of Jesus, though it deviates from traditional portrayals of the Crucifixion by depicting Christ on the polyhedron net of a hypercube and adding elements of Surrealism. It is one of his most well known paintings from the later period of his career.
== Background ==
Dalí’s inspiration for ''Corpus Hypercubus'' came from his change in artistic style during the 1940s and 1950s. Around that time, his interest in surrealism diminished and he became fascinated with nuclear science, feeling that “thenceforth, the atom was () favorite food for thought.” His interest grew from the bombing of Hiroshima at the end of World War II which left a lasting impression on him. In his 1951 essay “Mystical Manifesto”, he introduced an art theory he called “nuclear mysticism” that combined Dalí’s interests in Catholicism, mathematics, science, and Catalan culture in an effort to reestablish Classical values and techniques, which he extensively utilizes in ''Corpus Hypercubus''.〔http://www.baylor.edu/content/services/document.php/130948.pdf〕 That same year, to promote nuclear mysticism and explain the “return to spiritual classicism movement” in modern art,〔Montse Aguer- The Treasures of Dalí〕 he traveled throughout the United States giving lectures.
Before painting ''Corpus Hypercubus'', Dalí announced his intention to portray an exploding Christ using both classical painting techniques along with the motif of the cube and he declared that “this painting will be the great metaphysical work of () summer.” Juan de Herrera’s Treatise on Cubic Forms was particularly influential to Dalí.〔http://www.philipcoppens.com/dali.html〕
