The exhibition "The Subversive Eye: Surrealist and Experimental Photography from the David Raymond Collection" continues to captivate visitors at The Dalí Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida, and will be on display until May 4, 2025. This exhibition, celebrating 100 years of the Surrealist movement, features over 100 works by 50 artists, exploring the revolutionary impact of Surrealism in photography.

Since its opening on November 16, 2024, "The Subversive Eye" has provided a profound look into the evolution of photographic experimentation between 1925 and 1948. The exhibition reveals how artists have used photographic techniques to challenge perception and question the very nature of vision, paying tribute to the legacy of Surrealism.

Located in St. Petersburg, Florida, The Dalí Museum is a global landmark in preserving and exhibiting the works of Salvador Dalí. The museum houses one of the most comprehensive collections of the Spanish artist outside his homeland, with more than 2,400 pieces, including oil paintings, watercolors, drawings, sculptures, and prints. Its iconic architecture, featuring a glass dome known as "The Enigma", is inspired by Dalí’s own designs and offers visitors an immersive experience. In addition to its permanent and temporary exhibitions, the museum hosts events, lectures, and educational programs that delve into the life and legacy of the famous Surrealist painter.

Visitors to "The Subversive Eye" will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in a challenging and enigmatic visual universe, where photography becomes a medium for exploring the limits of human perception. The exhibition invites spectators to view the world through a Surrealist lens, keeping alive the essence of the movement that revolutionized art a century ago.
