■Walk, feel, and bask in Dali. This is an interactive exhibition in which you can immerse yourself in eccentric spaces created by Dali, which have been enjoyed by 2 million people worldwide.

Born in Spain, Salvador Dali became one of the representative artists of the 20th century. He elaborately depicted his fantastical, surreal, unique internal world by his graphic techniques. The Kadokawa Culture Museum brings you this interactive digital art exhibition to introduce his life, which involved not only paintings but also block prints, sculpture, objects, stage arts, jewelry designs, advertisements, films, and writings.

The videos focus on various aspects of Dali, including his unique appearance with the characteristic mustache, his fixation with the unusual and supernatural, his love for his wife Gala, who was both his muse and partner, as well as his activities in a broad range of media. They will stimulate the imagination of the viewers and invite us into Dali's distinctive world.

Enjoy Dali's visionary and magical world as you freely walk around the exhibit space and immerse yourself in the dynamic sights and sounds.

■Feel, learn, and enjoy Dali. Experience Dali with your whole body through various approaches.

The exhibition is broadly divided into three venues.

Next to the Digital Art Theater is the "Word Corridor". Here, words abstracted from Dali's own memoirs are displayed in the whole space. You can experience the bizarre words of Dali with your whole body.

Second Venue: Learning about Dali "Dali the Eternal Mystery! Dali?"

At the second venue, an exhibition space has been produced for learning about Dali on the theme "Dali the Eternal Mystery! Dali?". The chronology of Dali's life is exhibited in a space designed based on the image of the Dalí Theater-Museum in his birthplace Figueres, whose design and interior decoration was undertaken by Dali himself and that of theaters in Paris at that time.

Third Venue: Photo Spot to Enjoy Dali

A photo spot that anyone can enter free of charge is provided in the foyer at the entrance. Dali's famous works "The Persistence of Memory" and "The Temptation of St. Anthony" with photos of Dali himself adorn the walls. Within the venue are small props modelled on Dali's mustache and "an egg you can enter" among others, and visitors can take various photographs.

■The "Interactive Digital Art Theater" uniquely presented by the Kadokawa Culture Museum

This is an immersive full-body experience of artworks and narratives. An “interactive digital art theater” that wraps the entire venue up in a mixture of visuals and music was developed in the large exhibition space of over 1,100 m2 in the Kadokawa Culture Museum’s Grand Gallery. 32 high-brightness projectors are used together to create this entirely new type of visual experience at Kadokawa Culture Museum that seamlessly incorporates all of the venue’s walls and floor areas, providing a very special “shared” experience of time and space, distinct from cinema or virtual reality.

The first such exhibition was “Ukiyo-e Theater from Paris” (2021), and the second was "Van Gogh – This is how I see the World" (2022). In particular, the number of visitors to the "Van Gogh" exhibition exceeded 240,000. They enjoyed the immersive experience of being completely surrounded by art.

For the present exhibition, the Creative Director of the "Van Gogh" exhibition, Gianfranco Iannuzzi, has again joined with the Kadokawa Culture Museum to bring the mysterious world of Salvador Dali to life with video and music.。
