About the Collection
A private cabinet of surrealism, cast in bronze.
Between 1949 and 1984, Salvador Dalí sculpted a private catalogue of what he called obres joielleres — jewelled works — in which the vocabulary of his paintings was translated into bronze, gold, and precious stone.
Cast in strictly numbered editions at the historic Fonderia Bonvicini in Verona, each work carries the seal of the foundry and the certificate of the Fundació Gala-Salvador Dalí. The soft watches, the elephants of memory, the triumphant angels — all appear here at last as objects one might, in the most fortunate circumstances, hold.
Just Listed presents the twelve works of this chapter to a small circle of private collectors and institutional patrons.
No prices are published. Each acquisition is arranged in confidence, with authenticated provenance, insured transport and — where desired — a private viewing by appointment in London, Rotterdam, Paris, Miami, Barcelona, São Vicente or New York.
