DESCRIPTION:

Animals are key figures in Dalí’s work: cats, dogs, flies, ants, birds, fish, and fantastic creatures, each with its own symbolism.

This itinerary introduces students to Dalí and Surrealism through animals—real or imaginary—found in the museum and his artworks.

Fascinated by eggs, Dalí turned them into symbols, like those that crown Torre Galatea in Figueres. The hard shell hides secrets, fears, treasures… and animals! During the visit, parts of animals will emerge from a magical egg for students to combine and create a new surreal creature.

CONTENTS:

Discovery of Salvador Dalí’s pictorial work, with special focus on the portraits he created.

Introduction to photographic techniques and the process of creating a portrait.

Stimulation of creativity through the creation of their own portrait and the exploration of emotions through the image.

FINAL ACTIVITY:

At the end of the visit, we will test our creativity! Using magnetic boards, we will combine parts of animals to bring to life new surreal creatures and give them names.

REMARKS:

It’s not a workshop. In case of bad weather, the activity cannot be carried out.

If the group arrives late to the visit, the final activity may be canceled.

Activity suggested for students in Elementary School (ages 6–9).
