Dalí by Halsman

01/08/2016

Dalí by Halsman presents a selection of eighty-eight photographs of Salvador Dalí taken by Philippe Halsman (plus a gouache by Dalí painted on a photograph), for which Dalí’s involvement was both physical and conceptual.
The pictures shown in this exhibition were kept by Dalí throughout his life. They are reminiscences of his thirty-seven years collaboration, from 1941 to 1978, with another alchemist of the creative process.
The exhibition at  the Púbol castle-museum was curated by Montse Aguer, also author of the introduction to the catalogue. Irene Halsman, Oliver Rosenberg Halsman, Steve Bello, David G. Torre and Rosa Maria Maurell also contributed to its edition. The catalogue, sponsored by “la Caixa”, was  published by Distribucions d’Art Surrealista and designed by Bis Dixit. The exhibition has been designed by Pep Canaleta, 3carme33.
