From , former About.com Guide


Commissioned by the Gala-Salvador Dalí Foundation, Figueres, Spain, in celebration of the centennial of the artist's birth, Dalí was a major retrospective exhibition. Over 200 paintings and three dimensional objects traced Dalí's career from early Cubist-inspired works, through his famous Surrealist phase and well into his Classic period after World War II.

Dalí was organized by the Palazzo Grassi, Venice and the Philadelphia Museum of Art, with support from the Salvador Dalí Museum of Saint Petersburg, Florida, and the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid. It was on view at the Palazzo Grassi, Venice, Italy (September 12, 2004-January 16, 2005) and the Philadelphia Museum of Art (February 16-May 30, 2005).

To read a full review of the exhibition as seen at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, please see Dalí by Stan Parchin.
