'Salvador Dali: In Search of Immortality' to be released in August, depicting the life of a genius surrealist painter in the 20th century

The first poster for the documentary film 'Salvador Dali: In Search of Immortality' has been released.

'Salvador Dali: In Search of Immortality' shows Dalí's life and art and deals with the life of Gala, whom he admired and obsessed with throughout his life. Starting in 1929, an important period in his life, he joined a surrealist group, met Gala, and died in 1989.

Salvador Dalí is a genius painter who crossed the boundaries between art and commerce and drew attention by laying the groundwork for the birth of pop art. He created works that show off his ingenious imagination, such as a melting clock, a lobster phone, a Chupa Chups logo, and a sofa shaped like lips. He also collaborates with film directors Walt Disney and Alfred Hitchcock, and is also the producer of the film 'Andalusian Dog'.

As a master of surrealism representing the 20th century, he had a great influence on the art culture of modern society as a whole. Even today, large-scale exhibitions are held all over the world. The film was produced by the Gala-Salvador Dali Foundation. Statements and materials about Dali, and records about him are described.

One of the great attractions of the film is to see the influence he had on his art and life centered on Figueres and Portrigat in Spain. The numerous records, works, and videos of Salvador Dali, who left a significant mark on art history, are also noteworthy.

'Salvador Dali: In Search of Immortality' will be released in theaters in August.
