From Salvador Dali's exotic mustache to Rene Magritte's hat, to Frida Kahlo's, and many more, artists have emerged as talented and imaginative people who suffer from it as well.

Analysts differ among themselves about the motive that makes artists more inclined to wear crude or strange clothes and appear in front of people in different shapes and forms than the usual, but the only logical explanation that can explain these tendencies is that the painter or artist sees his body as a space in which his art can be worked.

Jaleb Klimt

Austrian painter Gustav Klimt, who lived between 1862 and 1918, was best known for the robes-like gown worn by patients in psychiatric clinics and mental hospitals.

Nothing distinguishes the dress except that Klimt was wearing it. Critics considered it iconic and an artistic fad, and photographers flocked to him to take pictures of him.

The strangest thing is that Klimt wore this dress, is that he made every woman associated with her wear exactly the same with only one difference, which is that the woman's dress is decorated with flowers and roses.

All the women who accompanied him, dressed in this strange way, appeared in several photographs with him.

Frida and Mexican Aesthetics

The Mexican painter Frida Kahlo, who lived between 1907 and 1954, appears in a similar vein as one of the artists known for their exotic costumes.

Kahlo was suffering from polio, which greatly slowed her movement, but she lost the ability to move completely, after being hit by a car crossing the road and left her to suffer from paraplegia for the rest of her life.

Kahlo's fashion, which combined warm, bold colors and rich patterns, was an attempt to compensate for the joy and happiness she lacked in her personal life.

Kahlo also wanted to appear in clothes inspired by Mexican pop culture and not by international fashion houses, because of her clear and open opposition to European and American imperial policies.

Kahlo was in this respect like hitting several birds with one stone;

Her clothes were full of femininity, joy and cultural specificity at the same time.

surreal hat

The surrealist painter Rene Magritte, who lived between 1898 and 1967, wore a permanent black hat.

It appeared in most of his famous paintings, more than 50 times in his works between 1926 and 1966.

Sometimes the sky rained hats, and sometimes the hat covered his whole face.

The hat is so important that it appears in Magritte's most famous painting, The Son of Man, in which a man wearing a magritte hat is seen by critics as himself, with an apple on his face.

Aside from the strange name of the content, the strangest thing is that this hat has caused the emergence of many surreal explanations for the good reason that might prompt the painter to use it so much!

As usual, the meaning lies in the heart of the painter alone.

Sharp Daly Commercial

The Spanish painter Salvador Dali, who lived between 1904 and 1989, was one of the most important surrealist painters of the 20th century.

He was distinguished by a mustache that aroused the admiration of critics and fans;

The painter, who was known for extreme vanity and arrogance, released a mustache with the length of his narcissistic ego.

Many critics agreed that the reason for Dali's excessive arrogance was his mother, who praised him all the time, while his relationship with his father was poor and strained.

And that his extreme narcissism is what drove him to this iconic mustache as he used wax all the time to keep his mustache upright.

Indeed, his mustache remained that way for about 30 years.

"The mustache is a big part of Dali's costume as an eccentric artist," says art historian Michelle Elson-Rose.

Daly's obsession with his mustache went so far that he wrote a scathing book on the history of his mustache since he was young and short and how it became a brand that advertisers flock to use.

The book, with few words and many pictures, was taken by his friend, photographer Philip Halsman (1906-1979).

The first edition was published in October 1954 in New York.
