Together, Museo Reina Sofía and the Centre Georges Pompidou have organised a large exhibition devoted to Salvador Dalí. The exhibition is conceived as a contribution to the reappraisal of Dalí as a thinker, a writer and the creator of a very particular vision of the world. The surrealist period comprises the central part of the show, which places special emphasis on the paranoiac-critical method developed by the artist as a mechanism with which to transform and subvert reality. Exhibition organised by Museo Reina Sofía and the Centre Georges Pompidou in París with the collaboration of Fundación Gala-Salvador Dalí, Figueras and Salvador Dali Museum, Saint Petersburg (Florida)
