General Information about the Exhibition
THE APPROACH TO THE ARTIST
"Because I sometimes become a painter, people believe I am an artist. My real interest is in Cybernetics, Quantum Physics, and Biology." - Salvador Dalí
The exhibition is a fascinating journey through Salvador Dalí’s most famous works from a completely new perspective. It traces his influences, from surrealism and Freud to science, mathematics, and computer science.
Technology meets Art: Dalí believed that for painting to survive, it must be connected with the use of computers. He foresaw a future where machines would think for themselves, even creating Art.
Art meets Science: The exhibition offers a thrilling exploration of Dalí’s most famous works, interpreted through science: quantum physics, parallel universes, the fourth dimension, sacred geometry, and DNA sequencing.
Science meets Faith: Dalí’s works reconcile belief in God with science. The golden ratio, which he applied in his art, signifies the divine perfection of the universe’s design. His fascination with DNA’s double helix reveals how God transmits immortality.
