Dalí in the Historical Center

in #mexico6 years ago

We went to the downtown in CDMX (Mexico City) to buy some jeans, suddenly we saw some sculptures next to the street, many people were inside the place. A melted clock, the closest one to the street, she said: Dalí! with a little smile (she knows that surrealism is not precisely my favorite movement).
Dalí, the master of the surrealism, it is this artistic movement about the dreams and images beyond reality with strange shapes and deformed objects.

The Dalí exposition is in the Historical Centter of Mexico City conformed by a series of bronze monuments is opening to all the public and it is free. Here some pics of my favorites pieces

Antropomorphique Cabinet, 1973

One of the principal items by the surrealism were the drawers, becouse them save something. From these opened drawers get out clothes that symbolize our secrets and disturbances
