DOC: “SALVADOR DALI: IN SEARCH OF IMMORTALITY”
February 20 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
An eye-opening journey through the life and work of the great Salvador Dalí and his long-time muse and collaborator, Gala. The film begins in 1929, a crucial year in Dalí’s life and career, as he joined the surrealist group and met Gala, and ends in 1989, the year of his passing. Dalí’s geographies figure prominently in his fascinating story: Portlligat, the location of his home-workshop; his hometown of Figueres, where he created his Dalí Theater-Museum; and Púbol, home to the magnificent Castle he shared with Gala. Using archival footage, images and documents, this intimate and revelatory documentary brings us closer to a one-of-a-kind genius who managed to create a character that is a work of art unto itself.
