THE SALVADOR DALI IS PROBABLY

18
00:00:36,101 --> 00:00:37,499
THE MOST FAMOUS OF THE 20th

19
00:00:37,501 --> 00:00:40,199
CENTURY ARTISTS.

20
00:00:40,201 --> 00:00:41,933
HE WAS SPANISH, AND HE WAS A

21
00:00:41,935 --> 00:00:44,232
SURREALIST.

22
00:00:44,234 --> 00:00:45,999
SPANISH, THOUGH, HE SPENT HALF

00:00:46,001 --> 00:00:47,732
OF HIS TIME IN THE UNITED STATES

24
00:00:47,734 --> 00:00:49,399
AND WAS HIGHLY INFLUENCED BY

25
00:00:49,401 --> 00:00:52,166
AMERICAN CULTURE.

26
00:00:52,168 --> 00:00:53,832
HE ALSO INFLUENCED OUR CULTURE,

INFLUENCED AMERICAN POPULAR

28
00:00:55,701 --> 00:00:58,166
CULTURE AND ITS HIGH ART.

29
00:00:58,168 --> 00:01:01,966
THE SURREALISTS WERE THOSE

30
00:01:01,968 --> 00:01:03,199
ARTISTS THAT ESSENTIALLY USED

31
00:01:03,201 --> 00:01:04,099
WHAT WE WOULD UNDERSTAND AS

32
00:01:04,101 --> 00:01:05,799
COLLAGE.

33
00:01:05,801 --> 00:01:06,899
THEIR AESTHETIC WAS A COLLAGED

34
00:01:06,901 --> 00:01:08,999
AESTHETIC.

35
00:01:09,001 --> 00:01:10,899
THAT IS, YOU TAKE SOMETHING FROM

36
00:01:10,901 --> 00:01:12,899
ONE PLACE AND SOMETHING FROM

37
00:01:12,901 --> 00:01:14,766
ANOTHER PLACE THAT WERE NOT

38
00:01:14,768 --> 00:01:16,365
TOGETHER AND YOU PUT THEM

00:01:16,367 --> 00:01:17,532

00:01:17,534 --> 00:01:19,265
SOMETHING NEW.

41
00:01:19,267 --> 00:01:19,866
BUT DALI DID THAT IN A DIFFERENT

42
00:01:19,868 --> 00:01:22,100
WAY.

43
00:01:22,102 --> 00:01:24,699
HE COLLAGED HIS DREAMS, AND HE

44
00:01:24,701 --> 00:01:26,599
WOULD TAKE IMAGES FROM HIS

45
00:01:26,601 --> 00:01:30,298
DREAMS AND PUT THEM ON CANVASES.

46
00:01:30,300 --> 00:01:31,633
AS A MATTER OF FACT, HE CALLED

47
00:01:31,635 --> 00:01:34,298
HIS PAINTINGS DREAM PHOTOGRAPHS.

48
00:01:34,300 --> 00:01:36,633
THE IDEA OF SURREALISM IS THAT

49
00:01:36,635 --> 00:01:41,198
THE WORLD IS NOT REAL, THAT IT'S

50
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,000
AN ILLUSION, AND THAT SOMETHING

51
00:01:43,002 --> 00:01:45,100
ELSE, WHAT GOES ON IN OUR MINDS

52
00:01:45,102 --> 00:01:47,766
AND IN OUR HEARTS IS MORE REAL,

53
00:01:47,768 --> 00:01:48,833
AND THEY TRY TO GET TO THIS

54
00:01:48,835 --> 00:01:50,365
GREATER REALITY.

56
00:01:57,102 --> 00:01:59,398

DALI'S VISION.

76
00:02:36,601 --> 00:02:38,566
IT'S A KIND OF COMBINATION OF

77
00:02:38,568 --> 00:02:40,699
CLASSICAL ARCHITECTURE,

78
00:02:40,701 --> 00:02:42,699
VERY CORRECT, WITH

79
00:02:42,701 --> 00:02:44,799
FANTASTICAL ELEMENTS.

80
00:02:44,801 --> 00:02:46,965
FOR INSTANCE, ABOVE US RIGHT NOW

81
00:02:46,967 --> 00:02:48,732
IS A GEODESIC DOME THAT HAS BEEN

82
00:02:48,734 --> 00:02:51,299
WARPED BY A COMPUTER SO THAT

83
00:02:51,301 --> 00:02:54,365
EVERY PANEL OF GLASS IS A

84
00:02:54,367 --> 00:02:54,965
DIFFERENT SIZE AND A DIFFERENT

85
00:02:54,967 --> 00:02:57,332
SHAPE.

86
00:02:57,334 --> 00:02:59,432
1,064 PANES OF GLASS, NO TWO THE

87
00:02:59,434 --> 00:03:02,332
SAME SIZE OR SHAPE.

88
00:03:02,334 --> 00:03:03,832
SO IT'S LIKE LOOKING OUT THROUGH

89
00:03:03,834 --> 00:03:05,632
A KALEIDOSCOPE SEEING THE WORLD

90
00:03:05,634 --> 00:03:08,599
FRAMED IN DIFFERENT WAYS.

91
00:03:08,601 --> 00:03:10,132
WHEN THEY COME, WE TRY TO ORIENT

92
00:03:10,134 --> 00:03:15,366
THEM A LITTLE BIT TO DALI.

93
00:03:15,368 --> 00:03:17,399
THE COLLECTION OF THE DALI

94
00:03:17,401 --> 00:03:19,366
MUSEUM IS BASED IN A PRIVATE

95
00:03:19,368 --> 00:03:21,965
COLLECTION, ORGANIZED AND

96
00:03:21,967 --> 00:03:24,399
GATHERED OVER FOUR DECADES BY A

97
00:03:24,401 --> 00:03:25,399
COUPLE, REYNOLDS AND ELEANOR

98
00:03:25,401 --> 00:03:27,399
MORSE.

99
00:03:27,401 --> 00:03:29,065
THE BACKSTORY IS, OF COURSE,

100
00:03:29,067 --> 00:03:30,965
THAT THE MORSES, WHO WERE

101
00:03:30,967 --> 00:03:32,733
FRIENDS OF DALI AND A HUGE

102
00:03:32,735 --> 00:03:34,232
COLLECTOR OF HIS, WERE LOOKING

103
00:03:34,234 --> 00:03:36,098
FOR A SPACE TO SHOW OFF THEIR

104
00:03:36,100 --> 00:03:38,266
COLLECTION AND CREATE A MUSEUM.

105
00:03:38,268 --> 00:03:40,432
AND ST. PETERSBURG WAS A

106
00:03:40,434 --> 00:03:42,399
CONTENDER AND LUCKY ENOUGH TO

107
00:03:42,401 --> 00:03:44,432
MAKE THE ARRANGEMENTS TO CREATE

108
00:03:44,434 --> 00:03:45,466
AND OPEN A MUSEUM HERE IN THE

109
00:03:45,468 --> 00:03:47,765
EARLY '80s.

110
00:03:47,767 --> 00:03:50,065
THE MORSES FELT THAT THIS

111
00:03:50,067 --> 00:03:52,299
CITY OF ST. PETERSBURG WAS A

112
00:03:52,301 --> 00:03:54,432
LITTLE BIT LIKE PORT LLIGAT

113
00:03:54,434 --> 00:03:55,432
WHERE DALI LIVED RIGHT ON THE

114
00:03:55,434 --> 00:03:57,633
SEA.

115
00:03:57,635 --> 00:03:59,998
WE HAVE A HUNDRED PAINTINGS,

116
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,699
2,000 ADDITIONAL WORKS OF DALI,

117
00:04:02,701 --> 00:04:04,931
REALLY THE MOST REPRESENTATIVE

118
00:04:04,933 --> 00:04:06,031
COLLECTION OF DALI'S WORK IN THE

119
00:04:06,033 --> 00:04:07,931
WORLD.

120
00:04:07,933 --> 00:04:09,399
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO PUT ON AN

121
00:04:09,401 --> 00:04:11,365
EXHIBITION OF DALI IN THE WORLD

122
00:04:11,367 --> 00:04:13,065
WITHOUT BORROWING FROM OUR

123
00:04:13,067 --> 00:04:14,065
COLLECTION BECAUSE IT'S SO

124
00:04:14,067 --> 00:04:15,932
IMPORTANT.

125
00:04:15,934 --> 00:04:17,632
WE WORK TO PROVIDE DIFFERENT

126
00:04:17,634 --> 00:04:19,832
EXHIBITIONS OF DALI.

127
00:04:19,834 --> 00:04:22,199
SO EVERY TIME YOU COME, YOU'LL

00:04:24,201 --> 00:04:26,165
ALSO THE WORK ORGANIZED IN A

130
00:04:26,167 --> 00:04:27,465
DIFFERENT WAY SHOWING DIFFERENT

131
00:04:27,467 --> 00:04:29,799
THEMES OF DALI.

132
00:04:29,801 --> 00:04:31,865
NOW, OUR CURATORS ALSO

133
00:04:31,867 --> 00:04:33,498
COMPLEMENT THAT WITH OTHER

134
00:04:33,500 --> 00:04:35,199
ARTISTS, ARTISTS THAT PERHAPS

135
00:04:35,201 --> 00:04:37,998
KNEW DALI, ARTISTS THAT DALI

136
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,465
ADMIRED, AND THAT TERRAIN IS

137
00:04:40,467 --> 00:04:42,065
VERY RICH AND WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO

138
00:04:42,067 --> 00:04:43,465
HAVE WONDERFUL SHOWS.

139
00:04:43,467 --> 00:04:45,265
WE'VE WELCOMED ANDY WARHOL.

140
00:04:45,267 --> 00:04:46,732
WE'VE HAD PABLO PICASSO.

141
00:04:46,734 --> 00:04:48,465
WE HAD M.C. ESCHER.

142
00:04:48,467 --> 00:04:50,165
CURRENTLY, WE ARE EXHIBITING

143
00:04:50,167 --> 00:04:51,432
AN EXHIBITION OF DISNEY AND

144
00:04:51,434 --> 00:04:53,132
DALI.

145
00:04:53,134 --> 00:04:54,498
THIS "DISNEY AND DALI:

146
00:04:54,500 --> 00:04:56,465
ARCHITECTS OF THE IMAGINATION"

147
00:04:56,467 --> 00:04:58,498
EXHIBITION IS REALLY ABOUT THEIR

148
00:04:58,500 --> 00:05:00,098
KIND OF UNLIKELY COLLABORATION

149
00:05:00,100 --> 00:05:01,965
AND BOTH BEING REALLY PIONEERS

150
00:05:01,967 --> 00:05:03,732
AND VISIONARIES IN THE WORLD OF

151
00:05:03,734 --> 00:05:07,498
IMAGINATION AND INNOVATION.

152
00:05:07,500 --> 00:05:08,832
I THINK DALI IS KNOWN FOR TWO

153
00:05:08,834 --> 00:05:11,199
THINGS PRIMARILY.

154
00:05:11,201 --> 00:05:13,532
ONE IS THE MUSTACHE ON HIS

155
00:05:13,534 --> 00:05:15,199
PERSON, AND THE OTHER IS HIS

156
00:05:15,201 --> 00:05:17,165
PAINTING OF MELTING CLOCKS.

157
00:05:17,167 --> 00:05:18,866
AND WE HAVE ONE OF HIS MOST

158
00:05:18,868 --> 00:05:20,332
IMPORTANT MELTING CLOCK

159
00:05:20,334 --> 00:05:21,499
PAINTINGS, WHICH IS CALLED

160
00:05:21,501 --> 00:05:22,799
"THE DISINTEGRATION OF THE

161
00:05:22,801 --> 00:05:25,199
PERSISTENCE OF MEMORY."

162
00:05:25,201 --> 00:05:27,999
IN IT THE CLOCKS ARE MELTING,

163
00:05:28,001 --> 00:05:30,532
BUT ADDITIONALLY, THE SEAFLOOR

164
00:05:30,534 --> 00:05:32,899
IS COMING UP AND EVERYTHING IS

165
00:05:32,901 --> 00:05:34,499
DIVIDED INTO ATOMS AND THE WORLD

166
00:05:34,501 --> 00:05:36,532
IS SEPARATED IN ITS PARTS.

167
00:05:36,534 --> 00:05:38,832
DALI'S WIFE SAID, "ONCE PEOPLE

168
00:05:38,834 --> 00:05:40,932
SEE THOSE MELTING CLOCKS,

169
00:05:40,934 --> 00:05:42,965
THEY WILL NEVER FORGET THEM."

170
00:05:42,967 --> 00:05:45,366
AND I THINK IT'S TRUE.

171
00:05:45,368 --> 00:05:47,132
ONE OF MY FAVORITE PAINTINGS AND

172
00:05:47,134 --> 00:05:48,999
ONE THAT PEOPLE COME FROM ALL

173
00:05:49,001 --> 00:05:50,032
AROUND THE WORLD TO SEE HAS A

174
00:05:50,034 --> 00:05:52,165
LONG TITLE.

175
00:05:52,167 --> 00:05:54,565
IT'S CALLED GALA -- HIS WIFE

176
00:05:54,567 --> 00:05:56,366
GALA, "GALA CONTEMPLATING THE

180
00:06:02,134 --> 00:06:04,532
ON THE ONE HAND, WHEN YOU FIRST

181
00:06:04,534 --> 00:06:06,032
LOOK AT THE PAINTING, YOU SEE

182
00:06:06,034 --> 00:06:08,032
HIS WIFE LOOKING OUT INTO THE

183
00:06:08,034 --> 00:06:10,499
MEDITERRANEAN SEA.

184
00:06:10,501 --> 00:06:12,599
BUT WHEN YOU GET BACK FAR

185
00:06:12,601 --> 00:06:14,131
ENOUGH, AND HE SAID 20 METERS IN

186
00:06:14,133 --> 00:06:17,499
THE TITLE, YOU SEE GALA

187
00:06:17,501 --> 00:06:19,532
DISAPPEARS AND YOU SEE THAT THE

188
00:06:19,534 --> 00:06:22,332
ENTIRE PAINTING IS THE BUST OF

189
00:06:22,334 --> 00:06:24,632
