PARIS - Located in the heart of picturesque Montmartre, two steps away from the famous Place du Tertre, the Espace Dali welcomes more than 100,000 visitors every year. Ranked as the 21st Parisian museum ( source : Tourist Office 2006) visitors can experience the permanent exhibition, two fine art galleries and two stores selling fine art collections. Young and old will be amazed by works such as Space Elephant, the famous Soft Watches, Alice in Wonderland, Romeo and Juliet as well as the famous Mae West Lips Sofa.

More than 600 square metres entirely dedicated to the master of surrealism! The Espace Dali presents the only permanent exhibition in France entirely dedicated to the master of surrealism, more particularly to his scultures and engravings. Visitors are able to discover more than 300 masterpieces that made Dali one of the great artistic geniuses of the twentieth century.

The largest collection in France of Dalí’s original sculptures:
Dalí’s creative genius transforms into three-dimensional sculpture, bringing forth his most famous and fantastic surrealistic images. The passion to express himself sculpturally lasted throughout his lifetime and each sculpture beholds a dalinian philosophy.

This superb collection, the most important assembly of Dalí sculptures in France, brings to light the Catalan Master’s imagination, and exhibits an unknown aspect of Salvador Dalí’s work.

Dalí’s complete collection of rare original handsigned etchings…
… illustrating the major themes of universal literature, mythology, history, and religion. Salvador Dalí was inspired to create a vast repertoire of personalities, allegories, and unique images.

Dalí, the undisputed graphic master, undertook the enormous task of illustrating worldly and otherworldly themes in his own expressly surrealistic style. This facet of the artist’s genius is unparalleled by any other artist of the twentieth century.

In the heart of Montmartre, two art galleries invite the visitor to discover the greatest artists of the twentieth century. The Galerie Montmartre: Artworks by Picasso, Dali and Chagall are displayed in an elegant, well-lit space overlooking one of the most beautiful cityscapes in central Paris. The gallery is located in the Place du Tertre.

The Galerie Dali presents a unique collection in France of limited edition sculptures, engravings and lithographs signed by Dali.
