Bill Powell will lead us in an exploration of the life of Salvador Dali.
Salvador Dali is considered by many as the greatest exponent of the Surrealist movement, his expansive artistic repertoire included art, file, sculpture and photography. To the dismay of many of his admirers, his excentricity often drew more attention than his artistic endeavours.
