"Apparatus and Hand," Salvador Dali, 1927
(Credit: Copyright: 2008 Salvador Dali)
Dali was part of the first generation of artists to be influenced by film and throughout his career you can see his passion for the medium in both technique and style. Collaborations between Dali and famous filmmakers Alfred Hitchcock, Luis Bunuel, Fritz Lang and Walt Disney and more are visible on large screens next to his paintings showcasing the synergy of mediums. One of Dali’s best known cinematic set pieces is the famous dream sequence in Hitchcock’s thriller “Spellbound" starring Gregory Peck and Ingrid Bergmans. On view are four grisaille paintings and one study of the five scenes of the movie sequence, which is shown in a continuous loop.
