The Dali

Dali and Science By Joy Garrett-Douglas

Through a short presentation, Dalí Museum Educator, Joy Garrett-Douglas explores a brief history of Salvador Dalí's fascination with science. She will discuss the scientific theories and inventions that inspired Dalí to create the world-famous painting The Persistence of Memory, 1931. The presentation will conclude with a demonstration of the “Liquid Layered Column”, a chemistry experiment and a fine art sculpture all in one.
