I’ve been to the museum in St. Pete twice. I was stunned by the size of several of his works. I’m not fond of the surreal style, but some of his other paintings are incredible.

I flew to FL to see the opening of that museum. It was fantastic. Great adventure.

I also have been in the Dali Museum in St. Pete. I'm hard to please...but the experience was incredible. You have to see his work to see his genius...and you become absorbed.

I went through the museum alone at first....then hooked up with one of the regular comprehensive tours that go on during the day with commentary by an expert docent....and I'm glad I went through the rooms again.

Dali's humor is evident in several "fool the eye" paintings he did...and they DO fool the eye! Some of his famous paintings are almost a story high !

The guide's narrative added SO much to the experience as to be unbelievable. You begin to understand the man and his art.

Because conventional wisdom is that Dali was "weird" and his art is "weird", neophytes tend to believe this misdirection . It's NOT so!!!

Please don't miss ANY chance to get to this museum if you live in or visit Florida. See for yourself.

It was several years ago I saw the multitude of his original and incredible art work. I can't wait to go back again to study and enjoy it even more.
