SDC10688Over the weekend I had the opportunity to catch the very packed Museum of Modern Art exhibition on Spanish surrealist Salvador Dalí , his paintings and his films.

The exhibit, on view at the top floor of the MOMA through September 15, features 130 paintings, drawings, scenarios, films, and sculptures by Dalí. It is really interesting to see how the same themes and images: melting clocks, cut eyeballs, and ants, appear across the different mediums. Among the films being shown is Un Chien andalou, made with Luis Buñuel, featuring an unforgettable and cringe worthy eyeball cutting scene.
