‘Paint like Dali: Persistence of Memory‘
Guided Event (Maestro)
Sunday, 15th September,
14:00 - 17:00
The Persistence of Memory (1931) is one of the most iconic and recognizable paintings of Surrealism. Frequently referenced in popular culture, the small canvas (24x33 cm) is sometimes known as “Melting Clocks”, “The Soft Watches” and “The Melting Watches”. The painting depicts a dreamworld in which common objects are deformed and displayed in a bizarre and irrational way: watches, solid and hard objects appear to be inexplicably limp and melting in the desolate landscape. Dalí paints his fantastical vision in a meticulous and realistic manner: he effortlessly integrates the real and the imaginary in order “to systemize confusion and thus to help discredit completely the world of reality”.

Golden Tears (in the style of Gustav Klimt)
Guided Event (Maestro)
Sunday, 29th September,
17:00 - 19:30
While this painting - Freya’s Tears - is often attributed to Gustav Klimt, it isn’t one of his. This evocative piece was created by Anne Marie Zilberman whose work leans toward facial close-ups. Though not a Klimt, it captures the duality of weeping - that tears can be both for joy and sorrow. And either are as valuable as gold.
