ABOUT
Dali Museum
The Dali Museum celebrates the life and work of Salvador Dali, featuring works spanning his entire career. The collection holds over 2,000 works in every medium of his artistic activity including 96 oil paintings, many original drawings, book illustrations, prints, sculpture, photos, manuscripts and an extensive archive. The Museum’s stunning building, designed by architect Yann Weymouth, combines the rational with the fantastical -- a simple rectangle with thick hurricane-proof walls out of which erupts a large geodesic glass bubble known as the “enigma”. Outside on the waterfront, the Avant-Garden creates a unique environment of learning and tranquility, offering an experience of the relationship between math and nature, and a labyrinth that invites exploration. Rain or shine, visitors will discover an unparalleled collection in an exceptional setting.
