The visitor will enter theWorld of Dali through an egg and is met with the beginning, the world of birth.The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with the visitor exitingthrough the brain.
The exhibition shows how Dalidraws the viewer between two infinities . “From the infinity smallto the infinity large, contraction and expansion coming in and out of focus:amazing Flemish accuracy and the showy Baroque of old painting that he used inhis museum-theatre in Figueras,” explains the Pompidou Centre.
The fine selection of the majorworks was done in close collaboration with the Museo Nacional ReinaSofia in Madrid, Spain, and with contributions from other institutions like theSalvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg.
