Salvador Dali Sculpture Exhibition in Beverly Hills

Salvador Dali Sculpture Exhibition on Two Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills

June 23, 2016 - September 26, 2016

Andrew Weiss Gallery is pleased to announce, in collaboration with Galerie Michael, Two Rodeo Drive, and the Stratton Institute, the first and largest outdoor showcase of the Salvador Dali Sculpture Collection in the United States.  These monumental and museum sized sculptures will be on display from June 23, 2016 through September 26, 2016.

Twelve iconic Salvador Dali sculptures will be on display and free to the public along Two Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, California.  The sculptures were loaned from the Stratton Institute, whom possess the largest collection of monumental Salvador Dali Sculptures in the world.  The museum sized sculptures range from about four to nine feet, while the monumental sized sculptures are up to 12 feet tall. 

These sculptures offer viewers a once in a lifetime opportunity to see artwork that epitomizes Salvador Dali in an open and outdoor setting. Surreal, quirky, and exceedingly imaginative: these exquisite sculptures embody everything that we know about Salvador Dali.  Salvador Dali incorporated some of his best known imagery within his sculptures including the elephant and the melting clock. Now these iconic sculptures are on view for the public to see.  

This exhibition will be supporting the international children's medical charity, Operation Smile. A percentage of all sales will be donated to Operation Smile and donations are greatly encouraged and appreciated.

Andrew Weiss, owner of Andrew Weiss Gallery, has a long standing relationship with the Stratton Institute, as well as a 30 year long personal and professional relationship with Michael Schwartz of Galerie Michael. Without our collective collaboration this exhibition would not have been possible.

 


Monumental Sculptures:

  • Persistence of Memory: Dalinian time is not rigid, but rather fluid. The unexpected softness of the watch represents the psychological fact that speed of time, while precise in scientific use, is widely variable in human perception.
  • Woman Aflame: ‘A woman’s mystery is her true beauty,’ as idealised with Dali’s use of the flames and drawers that convey the hidden intensity of unconscious desire and the mystery of hidden secrets.
  • The Unicorn: The mythical creature, a symbol of purity. The sensual nature of the piece is created with the portrayal the unicorn as a phallic figure with the out-stretched woman at its hooves.
  • Saint George and the Dragon: Saint George, guardian angel of Aragon and celebrated saint of chivalry in medieval Europe, battles against heresy and evil.

Museum Sculptures:

  • Triumphant Elephant: Exemplifies every individual’s hope for abundance and good fortune in the future.
  • Surrealist Warrior: Roman warrior representing all victories - real and ethereal, spiritual and physical.
  • Horse Saddled with Time: ‘Man believes he is in control of the voyage, but it is time who is the ultimate rider.’ This famous Dalinian image of the horse saddled with Dalinian time, time that controls all of man’s passage.
  • Triumphant Angel: The beautiful Dalian angel trumpets his divine music, wings spread, head thrown back, sending his jubilant message to all who will listen.
  • Surrealist Piano: Dali animates the instrument into an animated and joyous musical piano that can dance with its legs from a woman as well as play.
  • Snail and the Angel: A place in the Dalinian universe, intimately connected with the artist’s encounter with Sigmund Freud, who Dali regarded as his spiritual father.
  • Dance of Time II: The fluidity and space of time is represented through constant movement and dancing in sync to the beat of the universe.
  • Dance of Time I: Dalinian time is perpetual, “dancing on”, stopping for no man, history or the cosmos. The sculpture exemplifies Dali’s relationship with time, his perception of its constricting limitations and the importance he believed to be inherent in memory.

A Retrospective Exhibition: Marilyn Monroe through the Lens and with the Brush

David Bromley, Marilyn Tribute V, 2016

We hope you will join us at the opening of this photographic retrospective in commemoration of Marilyn Monroe's 90th Birthday anniversary.  This newly curated collection features Australian artist David Bromley's canvases in tribute to Marilyn as well as some of the world's most famous photographic works of the Icon. 
This exhibition presents works by noted Australian artist David Bromley and the worlds most celebrated Marilyn Monroe photographers: Andre de Dienes, Milton H. Greene, William Carroll, Kashio Aoki, Bert Stern, George Barris, and Laszlo Willinger

Milton H. Greene, 06 from The Pekingese Dog Sitting, 1955

David Bromley emerged as a painter in the mid-1980's.  In the early stages of his career, he held solo exhibitions in Sydney and Adelaide and represented works in state and regional galleries.  He has emerged as one of the most innovative and recognizable artist in Australia.  
In his practice, Bromley has developed themes for distinct and unique styles of painting; the female portrait, the children's series and the butterflies and birds series.  
Bromley's work is daringly colored and executed with a graphic intention, reminiscent of Warhol's Pop Art from the 1960's.  He credits Warhol as an early influence demonstrated in his reductive colors, graphic style and the simplified forms of his nudes.

David Bromley, Marilyn Tribute I, 2016

David Bromley's talent is now being merged with the iconic beauty of the one and only Marilyn Monroe.  David Bromley's magic comes to life in these magnificent Marilyn Monroe paintings that will be on display in Andrew Weiss Gallery.  

Milton H. Greene, Marilyn with Lute, 1953

"Andy Warhol immortalized her and even though her time on this earth had passed, she lives on forever a face, physicality, and a charisma. Her potency continues to seduce us as she seems both so beautiful and powerful. Equally, she seemed at times sad in her eyes and frail. With our opportunity to paint her and work with her images, we feel as if we have an opportunity to engage with her for longer. At times these works follow in the footsteps of people like Warhol, who, like me, seeks to heighten a story already told through respect and flamboyance, to paint her and further immortalize her."

-David Bromley

Now on View: Picasso Ceramics

Andrew Weiss Gallery is now showing a collection of ceramics by Pablo Picasso. Picasso, an undisputed Master of 20th Century Art, is best known for his large scale paintings and impressive body of graphic work.  What is lesser known about Picasso is his collaboration with Madoura Pottery, run by the Ramie family in Vallauris, that spanned over 25 years.

This rare collection gives viewers a taste of Picasso's diverse and fluent artistic skills with any medium.  Picasso's imagination, wit, and humor become apparent in this collection of pottery.  

Picasso became very interested in manipulating the shape of a ceramic to encompass his subject matter and design.  A vase became the female form and a round plate was transformed into a human face in Picasso's hands. Most of the ceramics are made of earthenware clay which means that they were fired at the lowest level causing the clay to be coarser and softer that other ceramics.  This type of clay can be made impervious to liquids by the use of glaze. 

These works are now on view at our Bergamot station gallery. Please email info@andrewweiss.com or call 310-246-9333 for further information about this collection.
