this afternoon emmy and i went to the salvador dali "painting and film" exhibit at the museum of modern art. moma was only a few blocks away from niketown, where we had just picked up our race packets for the nike human race 10k. despite the crowds at the museum, getting to see dale's work was a great time!
in addition to dali's incredible work, the exhibit highlighted how his art was integrated into other media - in particular, film.
below are a few of my favorite dali paintings from the exhibit. in addition to the paintings, two film gems were the dream sequence from "spellbound" and an animated short feature that dali worked on with walt disney - "destino!"
metamorphosis of narcissus
the average bureaucrat
portrait of laurence olivier
destino animation
spellbound dream sequence
Thank you for the post. The correct spelling of Dali's first name is SALVADOR.
