SPECIAL: SALVADOR DALI

In 1964, speaking about his art, Dali said :“My work is unique in the whole world”

Many of Dali’s works of art were reproduced by tens of thousands*, while others remain unknown to the art community and

even less by the public at large. LA GALERIE INTERNATIONALE has made such a discovery.

In New York, during the 60’s, Georgette Owens*, well known artist/painter was exhibiting her work at the Museum of
Modern Art, and at the Galleries of Madison Avenue, when she met Salvator Dali who became her career mentor. Dali engaged Ms Owens to model forhis drawing entitled La Meduse aka Medusa. As a gesture of thanks to Ms Owens, Dali presented her with his drawing St Georges aswell as two personally dedicated books.

Later, in 1997, both Renot and Georgette Owens were simultaneously exhibiting their work at
LA GALERIE INTERNATIONALE inPalo Alto. During the course of conversation, learning that Dali’s work was of particular interest for Renot, Ms Owens shared with himthe aforementioned books that she had in her possession. In one of those books, The World Of Salvador Dali (by his secretary, Robert Descharnes), a crucial discovery was made – inside the book on a cover page, there exists a Dali hand-inscribed insigna...a personal touch...

A VERY PERSONAL TOUCH...If the message is not clear, the fact remains that it is a DALI.

Musée Art Edition, a division of LA GALERIE INTERNATIONALE, with the pre-authorization of Georgette Owens is reproducing this piece. The actual work is being supervised by Renot and done on Arch paper cold pressed using the famous system of Giclée reproduction. This edition, on cold pressed Arches paper, will be limited to 350 + 2 artist proofs inclusive the measurements below:

THE EROTIC SNAKE

Each print is delivered with its certificate of authenticity

The authenticity is guaranteed by Musee Art Edition, Georgette Owens and Renot who are counter-signing each print.

*According to Margarita Ruiz Combalia in charge of the Musee Dali, the artist would have signed 30,000 blank Arches sheets, but Peter Moore declared that the number was higher, near 50,000.
