Salvador Dalì The Exhibition at the Palazzina Della Caccia of Stupinigi.
It is held in the ancient kitchen of the hunting palace at Stupinigi, the visitors will have the pleasure of admiring a unique exhibition of its kind, a new collection for the city of Turin, which exhibits various aspects of Dalì's artistic production, consisting of monumental sculptures, bronzes, books illustrated and glassware.
Advertised as : Dalì's most popular works, the different aspects of his artistic production, in a unique collection of its kind, for the first time in Turin.
Well, the exhibition does sound exciting and interesting, but after visiting, I found it rather plain and lacking.
Not sure whether it is because of the lack of interesting exhibited pieces or the unexciting arrangement of the exhibition, it lacks of a flow to follow through the various aspects of the artist's artistic production and lacks of a spark to excit the visitor's interest.
It is like looking at some side products of some of the artist's more famous works, without showing a single piece of the famous paintings.
It is like looking at some conceptural ideas of his masterpieces and try to recall how those masterpieces actually look like and imagine the link between them.
The entrance full price is 18 euro, just for the exhibition, 11.50 euro with a subscribed annual museum card. It doesn't seem worth it.
Location : Palazzina della Caccia Stupinigi

The arrangment, would be my guess. It looks very uninviting somehow.
@Stefan Janson, exactly! 'Uninviting' is the precise word to describe the setup.
These installations of arts are so well photographed
An unusual setting for such an event.
