Púbol of Gala. Illusion and reality
In an illustrated article published in The American Weekly in 1935, Dalí declared that the difference between a madman and a surrealist is that the madman confuses two worlds, that of illusion and that of reality, while a surrealist is able to differentiate between them. Many years later, when the artist was in the process of creating the Castle of Púbol, his work, with Gala as its protagonist, continued to span the two worlds.
With the show Gala's Púbol. Illusion and Reality we carry on in the line commenced in 2020 with the exhibition Gala/Dalí/Dior. Of Art and Fashion. This year, the Fundació Gala-Salvador Dalí has set itself to investigating the construction of Gala's image through original work by Salvador Dalí and one of the most iconic of the 1970s looks of the muse.
