Salvador Dalí was one of the most famous painters of the 20th century with a series of imaginative and shocking surrealist works. His repertoire was influenced by the classical Renaissance masters, but he also enjoyed a new avant-garde approach to painting.
In addition to painting, he also worked in film, sculpture and photography. Dalí had a habit of doing eccentric things that polarised his views. His eccentric ways were a reflection of his art and vice versa. The fact that he was always in the spotlight made his paintings all the more famous.
Central Gallery presents a retrospective exhibition of one of the most famous Czech photographers, Jan Saudek, organized on the occasion of his 90th birthday. Saudek is mostly devoted to studio photography, which is central to his work and known to the general public.
