Dali at the MoMA

Dali is at the MoMA.

The show tracks the traffic of images, themes and ideas between Dalí’s films, both realized and not, and his more static efforts, including paintings, drawings, letters, illustrated notes, scenarios and other ephemera.
[...]
Dalí grasped that film’s capacities — for depicting irrationality in action; for dissolving, continually mutating images; and for an intensely real unreality — were all ready-made for his sensibility and his desire to reach a mass audience.
[...]
“Destino,” the sprightly animated short of love and loss that Dalí worked on energetically for Walt Disney in 1946 [runs continuously].

The show runs through Sept 15 at the MoMA.

I think it’s hilarious that Dali did commercials. I especially like his “interpretation” of how Alkaseltzer works. :)
