I won't say I'm a great fan of the eccentric Master Surrealist Salvador Dali (1904 - 1989).
Some of his stuff are downright weird and a little too 'sub-conscious' for my liking. But they do make you stop and look I concede.
Over the next month or so, the Opera Gallery in Ngee Ann City has brought in a number of the Master's works, both paintings and giant sculptures, which will be displayed around our little island. So me and K popped down to the gallery for a look-see today. We caught these 2 behemoths outside the behemoth mall as well.
Will try to catch the rest of his works like the famous Space Elephant and St George And The Dragon when we have the time.
In the meantime, I think I still prefer Fernando Botero's Fat Ladies and other grotesquely obese creatures =))

The armless female form has a melting watch sliding down her neck and a golden egg on her dis-jointed pelvis (US$1.7m).
