  • Dali at the Moma

    July 18th, 2008
    By: Paris Ionescu
    Topics: Art in General

    Dali still shocks: A man keeps laughing uneasily during Un Chien Andalou and an old woman has to turn around when “the eyes gets cut.”

    Salvador Dali’s new exhibit at the Moma combines his passion for film with his paintings. Six of his surrealist films are scattered throughout the exhibit starting with his collaborations with Luis Bunuel, to a dream sequence scene from Alfred Hitchcock’s Spellbound, to a grainy psychedelic film about an expedition for overgrown hallucinogenic mushrooms in Mongolia.

    Destino
    , Dali’s unfinished animated collaboration with Disney is in the third room. A princess runs across an endless Daliesque plain and enacts a love affair with a statue. It’s pure dreamscape of course, but gives viewers a chance to see what it might have been like inside this man’s mind.

    Some of his most famous paintings are on display: The Persistence of Memory, Metamophosis of Narcissus, and Illumined Pleasures.

    Dali at any museum is an event. To be able to stand next to the paintings and works you’ve seen your whole life and witness the madness first hand is inspiring. He’s on display until September 15th, tread carefully.

      The exhibit is well worth the visit. The people in attendance were staring in silence for long periods of time and were facinated by the works.
