Salvador Dalí: The 21st century dandy

Salvador Dalí: The 21st Century Dandy

Man's fashion from 1971–2017

Special Exhibition from July 7 until November 30, 2017

Salvador Dalí was commissioned by the internationally renowned menswear brand Scabal in 1971 to design the first edition of the magazine "Scarab" to present his vision of man and fashion in the 21st century. On this occasion, Dalí designed 12 colorful watercolors, which served as templates for the Scabal designers to create a unique collection of fabrics. This extraordinary collaboration inspired Dalí to create the surreal bronze sculpture „Mannequin Zootropique“. For the first time these artworks are exhibited in an extensive show in Berlin.
