The “Dali’ Revolution and Tradition” exhibit at Rome’s Palazzo Cipolla, October 21st, 2025

The “Dali’ Revolution and Tradition” exhibit is currently on at Rome’s central Palazzo Cipolla.
















Dali’ (1904–1989) was a Spanish surrealist painter who had portrayed dream images with almost photographic realism against backgrounds of arid Catalan landscapes. 
















The Rome exhibit includes 60 works of art, including the painting “Girl From Figueres”, by an artist who once had a rather ambivalent relationship with Pablo Picasso but who had been also greatly influenced by Velázquez, Vermeer and Raphael (the Italian painter was perhaps his all-time favorite artist).   Dali’ used the in the 1970s the phenomenon of "stereoscopy", a process that dates back to the origin of photography and which is aimed at creating the illusion of three-dimensionality. 





















The exhibit runs until February 1st, 2026.
