Dali Exhibit at MoMA
And I particularly enjoyed a couple of his very humorous drawings, one of which was called something like ‘Suicide Bike Tour’, and featured a line of bikes heading towards the edge of a cliff, with some already having ridden off it, and my favourite, Groucho Shiva, featuring a six armed Groucho Marx with a phone in each hand.
I really wasn’t expecting such huge crowds and shouldn’t have been surprised at how many foreign accents there were – particularly French, or how many young adults there were. Of course, there were a few people who pretended they were alone in there and stood directly in front of paintings so that nobody else could see, but fortunately, the crowd was almost exclusively very friendly and respectful.
The picture is taken from the 5th floor where special exhibitions are displayed.
