Step into a world where surrealism meets cutting-edge technology. The Art Box Experience is launching Poland’s first multisensory exhibition, Dalí Cybernetics, on Friday, September 13th, 2024. This immersive journey delves into the life and genius of Salvador Dalí, one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.
Salvador Dalí, known for his eccentricity and boundary-pushing creativity, was not only a pioneer of surrealism but also an innovator who embraced science and technology. His fascination with Einstein’s theory of relativity and the fourth dimension permeated his artwork, most famously seen in The Persistence of Memory. Dalí’s surreal depictions of dreamlike landscapes, melting clocks, and distorted figures have become iconic representations of modern art.
Dalí Cybernetics promises to showcase how Dalí’s provocative and scientific mindset led him to experiment with groundbreaking technology. One of the first artists to engage with holography, Dalí created three-dimensional works in the 1970s that predicted the digital revolution in art. This exhibition merges his surreal imagination with modern technology—featuring large-format projections, artificial intelligence, and virtual reality—allowing visitors to explore Dalí’s world in an entirely new way.
The exhibition offers a poetic fusion of Dalí’s masterpieces with state-of-the-art digital installations. Some of his most famous works—The Persistence of Memory, The Burning Giraffe, and The Temptation of Saint Anthony—will be reinterpreted in immersive formats, transporting viewers to the “Dalí metaverse.”
Joanna Kowalkowska, CEO of Art Box Experience, highlights how this exhibition extends Dalí’s legacy: “Dalí was a visionary who embraced technology in his art. With Dalí Cybernetics, we continue that journey, offering an innovative and interactive look at his most iconic works.”
Dalí Cybernetics isn’t just a visual experience; it’s an educational one. Designed to engage visitors of all ages, the exhibition includes a rich program of events that range from school workshops to family tours. Highlights include activities like The Science of Colors, Mathematics in Dalí’s Art, and creative workshops for children, as well as themed tours for adults. With guided tours and events on weekends, it’s an opportunity to explore Dalí’s artistic vision in a fun and interactive way.
Mateusz Labuda, Vice President of Art Box Experience, emphasizes the educational element: “Our mission is to present Dalí’s life and work in a way that not only entertains but also educates, blending traditional knowledge with cutting-edge technology.”
The exhibition runs from September 13th to December 31st, 2024, at the Norblin Factory in Warsaw. Tickets can be purchased online, and with a space of 800 square meters dedicated to Dalí’s work, it’s an experience not to be missed.
