Dali spotting in Singapore
“Like elements winking into life in a dreamscape”, as Clara Chow of the Straits Times put it, 10 monumental sculptures by Salvador Dali have been appearing on Singapore’s streets in batches this past week. Thailand has a coup; Singapore imports Dali.
But, curiously, the cautious city-state erected the statuary at midnight to cut back on the number of gawkers.
They’re part of a “Dali In Singapore” exhibition coninuing until October 14, and they’re all for sale. The biggest piece, “Space Elephant”, photo above from AFP, will set you back US$1.7 million and not so much be a conversation piece in you garden as alert NASA to your lunacy. See the rest.
