Technical information. Museum address: Plaza Gala-Salvador Dali, 5. Ticket 12 euros (please note that there is a separate entrance to the jewelry exhibition - it is located 50 meters to the left of the central one, if you face the entrance to the museum). The museum is closed on Monday.
Adviсe:
1. Always remember - surrealism is a combination of dream and reality. Art was perceived by the artist as the main tool for the liberation of his own consciousness. Therefore, send logic on vacation and do not try to squeeze Dali's work into the generally accepted framework.
2. Go around the museum building itself in a circle - it is already a work of art in itself - such a surrealism in architecture : )
3. In the museum:
- El Salvador's favorite installation - "Great Esther", pulling a column of tires;
- Dali's illusions. The painting "Naked Gala Looking at the Sea" transforms from a distance into a portrait of Abraham Lincoln;
- an illusion room, molded from the features of the film star Mae West.
The actress is known for her aphorisms, the most famous of which was: "Sir, is that a gun in your pocket or are you just glad to see me? ";
- El Salvador's personal space. Ceiling with a painting "Dali and Gala fly to heaven" and a bedroom, with a golden skeleton at the head;
- the exhibition complex "Dali-jewels" with decorations made according to the sketches of Salvador;
- the artist is buried in his theatre-museum - among the exhibits there is a tombstone with a simple inscription: Salvador Dali i Domenech, Marques de Dali de Pubol, 1904-1989.
I still cannot coherently formulate my impressions of Dali. Who is he? Genius or Great Mystifier? I can say one thing for sure - Dali is stunning!
