Dalí: Poetics of the Small, 1929–1936 at the Meadows Museum

The Meadows Museum at SMU presents Dalí: Poetics of the Small, 1929–1936, the first in-depth exploration of the small-scale paintings of Salvador Dalí (1904–1989). The exhibition will include nearly two dozen of Dalí’s small-scale paintings which reflect Dalí’s distinctive Surrealist style—with familiar but distorted figures often set against a dramatic or barren landscape. The project also includes a technical study of a selection of these paintings by the director of conservation at the Kimbell Art Museum.
