Teatre Museau Dali

If Salvador Dali's art is any indication of what his self designed museum is going to be like then we can be sure of a few things: it is going to be big, it is going to be unconventional and not everybody is going to like it.
In between listening to whinging tourists (who did not want to be there but felt because they'd paid for the ticket in their tour, they should bother those who did want to be there) we saw dark, intoxicating rooms; velvet walls; white walls; black walls; glass walls and exposed brick. The building itself was perfect.

Salvador Dali worked on canvas, sculturally, from behind the lense, on products, jewellery, and installations.

Some of his art appears extremely coherent and then some, so surreal it is as if it is all composted by different people.

If, like myself, you find your arrival to the museum coinciding with the commencement of a tour, I suggest you take a look around Figueres, it is such a quaint town, and the food and wine are the most authentic I tasted in Espaina.
