Entre el sueño y la realidad,
una incursión en el universo del emblemático Salvador Dalí
en ARCUB - Hanul Gabroveni (Gabroveni Inn), in the heart of Bucharest
through September 1, 2024
"Salvador Dalí's Universe" special exhibition reveals lesser-known aspects of the famous Catalan artist's art through surrealist art objects that question the "classical" coordinates of reality. "Evidence" of the fabulous imagination of one of the most influential artists of the 20th century, 170 Salvador Dalí artworks can be admired at ARCUB (Bucharest Cultural Centre): gold objects and coloured glass paste sculptures - the result of the artist's collaboration with the Daum Cristallerie, etchings and engravings, lithographs and surrealist furniture.
Visited by over 70,000 people so far, the exhibition "Salvador Dalí's Universe" offers the viewer an intriguing journey into a dystopian reality, beyond the usual conventions, where strange images from the deepest layers of the subconscious come to life in a surreal game. The exhibition highlights Dalí's experiments with various artistic media, crossing fields such as painting, sculpture, literature, cinema, decorative art and advertising.
La tumultuosa vida del icónico Salvador Dalí se presenta de una manera cautivadora, ofreciendo al público una visión convincente de la creación de un gran artista, Reconocido por su excentricidad, su deseo de provocar y su extraordinario talento. Torres Blanca y Negra del siglo
The exhibition at ARCUB does not lack the famous soft, melted watches that established Dalí in the collective imaginary. Dance of Time III, an imposing bronze sculpture, and Dance of Time II, a gold jeweled-sculpture inlaid with diamonds and rubies, are the result of Dalinian experiments in exploring other forms of artistic expression. These works of art are another manifestation of Freudian theories' influence on Dalí's artistic creation, who argued that "matter cannot be spiritualized unless you pour it into gold".
Conocido por su "avidez", por la pasión con la que se dedicó a diversos proyectos comerciales, Salvador Dalí se apropió del anagrama "dólares Avida", que le atribuye André Breton, el fundador y teórico del movimiento surrealista.
En ARCUB - Gabroveni Inn, el público podrá contemplar la interpretación que Dalí hace de este título, lo cual no sólo aceptó, sino que decidió utilizarlo para su promoción personal, materializada en los colgantes Avida Dollars, objetos-joyas de oro.
Controversial and admired, although excluded from the surrealist group because of his profascist ideas, Salvador Dalí remains one of the most representative artists of this movement. Dalí extended his imagery and symbolism into a variety of creative fields: he did not limit himself to painting and sculpture, but explored the world of fashion design with the same passion. His complex relationship with fashion was deeply influenced by his aesthetic and his unique view of the world. Among his notable collaborations are those with designers Elsa Schiaparelli, Coco Chanel and model Amanda Lear.
The section dedicated to illustrated books in the exhibition at ARCUB highlights the diversity of printing techniques used by Dalí, while highlighting his surrealist interpretation of the Western canon. From religious and mythological themes, to the works of William Shakespeare, fantasies of the future and even his unique take on the controversial works of the Marquis de Sade, the works on display at ARCUB - Gabroveni Inn introduce visitors to a distortion of forms, offering a disturbing and profound vision of the human condition.
The VR experience available within the exhibition completely transforms the way viewers connect with the artist's creations, carrying them into a surreal "virtual" universe where they can experience the distorted Dalinian imagery in a new dimension. The viewing experience can also be complemented by an audio guide, which provides comprehensive information about the artworks on display and how they relate to the famous artist's life.
Una exposición obligada para los amantes del arte experimentados. - y una introducción única a la obra de uno de los artistas más influyentes del siglo XX - "Salvador Dalí's Universe" es una gran incorporación a la escena artística de la capital de Rumania.
