Dali Musuem
The largest collection of Salvador Dalí’s artwork outside of his native Spain was unveiled in January at the new Dalí Museum in St. Petersburg, Fla. The $36 million museum is an imposing concrete structure marked by an amorphous entryway of glass and steel inspired by surrealist sensibilities. However, more than just an aesthetic choice, the building’s fortress-like construction ensures that it will withstand the punishing winds of Florida’s hurricane season, a necessary precaution when safeguarding a collection of more than 2,000 pieces of art within the museum’s 20,000 square feet of display space.
