Explore Salvador Dali's Paintings Through VR Video
Immerse yourself in the Surrealist artist’s dreamscapes.
The Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida has launched a new exhibit titled “Disney & Dali: Architects of the Imagination,” telling the story of an unlikely friendship between Surrealist painter Salvador Dali and entertainment innovator Walt Disney. On display are an assortment of story sketches, conceptual artwork and archival film portraying how two dreamers used their imaginations to propel themselves in their respective careers. In the spirit of creating a multi-sensory experience, the museum has put together a virtual reality video where audiences can explore Dali’s paintings like never before. “Dreams of Dali” starts off with the illusory landscape of the Archeological Reminiscence of Millet’s ‘Angelus’ painting and takes viewers through other famous works from the artist, all available in 4K display. Users can wear an Oculus Rift or a Google headset with an Android OS to get the full 3D VR experience, or simply click and drag to view the 360-degree video on desktop and mobile.
