This museum is the main attraction of the northern Spanish city Figueres. The museum is fully focusing on the art of Salvador Dali and his students. The architecture as well as the art are made by this extravagant genius. The line between geniality and madness is however very thin.
Dali's paintings are fascinating, a fantasy world with lots of details. Many paintings we liked, ..... others too strange. When an artist would create this now in the 21st century, it would still be modern. Next to paintings, you also see architectural art and items integrated in the gallery. Without doubt, the best museum of Figueres.
Dit museum is de hoofdbezienswaardigheid van de noord Spaanse stad Figueres. Het museum richt zich volledig op de kunst van Salvador Dali en zijn leerlingen. De architectuur en de werken zijn gemaakt door dit extravagante genie. De grens tussen genialiteit en waanzin liggen hier echter heel dicht bij elkaar.
Dali's schilderijen zijn fascinerend, een fantasiewereld vol details. Vele schilderijen vielen in de smaak, .... anderen te raar. Als een kunstenaar dit nu zou maken in de 21ste eeuw, zou het nog modern zijn. Naast schilderwerken, zie je ook architectuur en kunst geïntegreerd in de galerijen. Zonder enige twijfel het beste museum van Figueres.

ReplyDeleteI visited this museum several years ago - it is fascinating place - the outside is also extraordinary with the roofline topped with those huge eggs.
ReplyDeleteDeze foto's roepen herinneringen op aan vervlogen vakanties. Een mooi overzicht.
ReplyDeletewonderful shot of Dali's art! I would have loved walking around here. I love the way you described him; the thin line. I wonder if his mind was just as chaotic as his art...probably so. Wonder if these were dreams of his.
ReplyDeletegeniaal op zijn manier Filip
