Art, Chania, Crete, Dalí, Salvador Dalí
On my way to the Archaeological Museum I saw a banner up high promoting a Salvador Dalí exhibit. so I followed the arrows, climbed a few stairs and found a little collection of Dalí prints, tapestries, cards and jewelry. The prints were lithographs on silk, something I don’t think I’ve ever seen.
In the middle of the gallery space was a bronze casted sculpture by Lorenz Quinn, the fifth son of Actor Anthony Quinn. Anthony Queen starred in the popular 1964 film, Zorba The Greek, which was filmed on Stavros Beach, Crete.
Another interesting artifact in the exhibit was a Jackie Gleason album that featured a Dalí design on the jacket cover.

I also found that sign and came to the entrance and it was shut! Can you tell me where I can get more information? I was there about 4pm but as most of Chania is shut I’m hoping it was just shut for the afternoon and not gone for good! Tried looking for info and found your lovely blog, but nothing else!
I’m sorry but I have no other information. I live in Chicago and was traveling this summer when I found it. I went during the week and I believe it was morning. A lot if places on the island closed early, I noticed.
I hope you get inside, it’s a great little Chania gem. Thanks for checking out my blog. 🙂
