Dalí Dalí feat. Francesco Vezzoli

It has been 25 years since the works of Salvador Dalí were last presented in Stockholm. Now it is the right time to present one of the most important artists from the 20th century -again at the Moderna Museet- especially to a new generation that never had the possibility to see his works in real. In the Dalí Dalí featuring Francesco Vezzoli exhibition (September 19, 2009-January 17, 2010), contemporary Italian artist Francesco Vezzoli is invited to add co-curatorial input as well as an artistic intervention in the display.
