At 13 Dalí presents his first exhibition when his father, also named Salvador, put on a show in his charcoal drawings in their family home.

While his first art exhibition was a turning point in his life, Dali was also deeply affected by the death of his mother to breast cancer when he was no older than 16 years. He loved his mother and said her loss "was the greatest blow I had ever known."

Dalí moved to Madrid in 1922 to attend the School of Fine Arts Fernando San where he first experimented in Cubism which received the most attention for their comrades. Dalí never finished his studies and was expelled shortly before graduation in 1926, his rod ejection annular faculty was competent enough to judge your work.
