Work Team

Publication of the Catalogue Raisonné of Paintings by Salvador Dalí was carried out between 2004 and 2017, in several phases: the first phase covered the paintings from the years up to 1929; the second, to 1939; the third to 1951, the fourth to 1964 and the fifth and last up to 1983. Inevitably, the composition of the technical team has changed over the last 15 years, and the names of the people involved in the project since its origin are given below, together with the corresponding chronological stages.
