New Salvador Dali Museum Opening!

The new Salvador Dali Museum will open January 11, 2011 in St. Petersburg, Florida. The grand opening party to be attended by Her Royal Highness Infanta Cristina of Spain as guest of honor.

The opening of the new, visually stunning $36 million building will double the current space of the Dali Museum to 66,450 square feet. Construction began in December 2008, and the attractive, innovative structure can reportedly withstand a category five hurricane. The roof is 12-inch thick solid concrete. The walls are 18 inches. All this is to protect the precious Dalis, of course, of which there will be 2,140, including 96 oil paintings.

The museum will be occupied throughout 2011 with a special exhibit called Viva la Revelacion!, displaying all paintings and highlighting other major works from the permanent collection to celebrate the new building.
