Espace Dali (Dali Paris Museum), Paris

Situated right next to the picturesque Place du Tertre in Montmartre, this unique permanent exhibition is entirely dedicated to the art of Salvador Dalí and showcases over 300 original works of the artist – the largest collection of Dalínian sculptures and engravings in France.

Salvador Dalí is one of the world's most acclaimed artists of the 20th century and a recognized master of surrealism. Born in Spain in 1904, he began as an Impressionist but later discovered Cubism in 1921. In addition to his paintings, he created three-dimensional sculptures and engravings.

The museum offers a fascinating insight into the Catalan master's imagination and features some of his clothing designs and a film, which is displayed in a corridor – a rare sight in art galleries. The collection includes famous original sculptures such as "Space Elephant" and "Alice in Wonderland," as well as some of Dalí's works on paper, including "Moses and Monotheism" and "Memories of Surrealism."

Visitors can also explore the creative process behind some of Salvador Dalí's most celebrated works in detail.

Why You Should Visit:
A fascinating exhibition, perfect for Dalí aficionados or for anyone wishing to understand the motivations and meaning behind the master's work.

Tip:
There is a lovely gift shop at the end and even the opportunity to buy some of the artwork if you feel like spending some serious money.
