Fetish telephone
Reconstructable ready made sculpture | Signed by Thomas Dellert
Inspired by the Aphrodisiac telephone by Salvador Dali. But in this version instead of the plastic lobster in the original art work by Dali, made with a high heel shoe once used by his wife artist and actress Agnieszka Dellert- Dellfina.
The telephone as a device for communication between two people, who are far from one another, becomes here a fetish dialogue with the past.
Lobster Telephone (also known as Aphrodisiac Telephone) is a surrealist object, created by Salvador Dali in 1936 for the English poet Edward James (1907-1984), a leading collector of surrealist art.
Dali wrote of lobsters and telephones in his book The Secret Life, demanding to know why, when he asked for a grilled lobster in a restaurant, he was never presented with a boiled telephone.
