Off Topic: Dalí …mania.

August 12th, 2006 by Yiyo

I’m a big fan of Salvador Dalí. This time I just wanted to write about some curiosities of his creations.

In first place, there’s a 6 minutes animated film, made by Disney & Dalí called Destino. (This story begins in 1946, finally in 2003 was made reality), this video is like Disney’s Fantasia meets Dalí Paintings. Destino was nominated for an Academy Award (it didn’t win) but was showed few times in Festivals… it hasn’t been projected commercially, it’s a shame because I reaaaaaaally want to watch this. There’s a rumor for an upcoming DVD…. anyway, for the moment youtube has the clips.

In the other hand, some of you might know that in celebration of the 100th anniversary of Dalí, a series of books was published containing all the work of this painter (it includes autobiographies, poetry, yadayadayada). There are 8 volumes, right know this series is on its 5th volume (I think).. the news are that yesterday I found that volume 1 and 2 are for sale here in Venezuela. (yeeeah!!!! tecniciencia… yeap my darling Bs. 138.000 each volume). But I think it’s worthy.
To conclude this post.. I’ll show you this……..what can you see?… Gala watching at the sea or Lincoln.

Slds,

Yiyo.

    OK en ingles.

    Lo ver en Saint Petersburgh, Florida. Alla haber un museo solamente de Dali. Pero creer que este cuadro andar en tour, no pertenecer a museo. Burda de arrechisimou.

    Si gustar Dali, cuando venir a Miami, poder viajar a Tampa en un solo día y conocer museo. Mucho bonito y grande. Muchas playas bonitas, too.
