About the Cover
The Dalí Museum’s Dalí Dome’s Dalí Alive 360° is an immersive experience celebrating the life and creative genius of one of the most influential and inventive artists of the modern era, Salvador Dalí. This multi-sensory art experience envelops visitors in 360 degrees of light and sound. Dalí Alive 360˚ is a $15 add-on experience to a Gallery Admission ticket for all guests, including members. Dr. David Lubin took this photo of Dalí’s probably most significant painting, done in 1931, at the age of 27, The Persistence of Memory, as it floated across the ceiling with his Samsung S23 Smartphone. He creatively used the Dalí font for The Bulletin header.
