Grotesque Dali
Up in Figueres, the Dali museum, one of the biggest tourist attractions of the region, is by turns nauseating, funny and grotesque. An explosion of kitsch which not even its very excess redeems. Down in Pubol, the Gala chateau, with its sweet dead roses smell, the piped in Wagner, the collection of haute couture dresses and other assorted mementos of the high life faux surrealist style stands as another monument to the cult of personality gone silly.
