Dalí Centenary Celebrations Across Europe and US

The 100th anniversary of Salvador Dalí's birth will be commemorated with a significant exhibition set to launch on January 27 in Barcelona, which will then move to Madrid, Saint Petersburg (Florida), and Rotterdam. This event, organized by the Gala-Salvador Dalí Foundation in Figueres, will feature conferences, photo exhibitions, and a film festival, along with the release of Dalí's complete works in eight volumes and an online catalogue raisonné. Despite Dalí's connections to France, French institutions will not participate in the celebrations, although several books will be published, including Ricard Mas Peinado's study and a reprint of Luis Romero's "Tout Dalí en un visage." The article critiques the image reproduction in the Flammarion book while praising Mas Peinado's work for its engaging style. Additional recommended readings include Jean-Louis Gaillemin's "Dalí, désirs inassouvis" and the reissue of Dalí's novel "Visages cachés."
