Join curators Caitlin Haskell and Jennifer Cohen and paintings conservators Allison Langley and Katrina Rush for an in-depth discussion about a major discovery made while conducting research for Salvador Dalí: The Image Disappears. Learn how they linked the iconic Art Institute painting formerly known as Visions of Eternity (1936) to a mural from Dalí’s salacious funhouse pavilion for the 1939 New York World’s Fair, and see this icon of Surrealism in a new light.

Please note that Salvador Dalí: The Image Disappears requires a free ticket due to limited capacity in the space. Members do not need tickets. All visitors, including members, should join the virtual line as soon as they arrive at the museum by scanning the QR codes on signs near the museum entrances.
