The Dalí Museum is perpetually revisiting the Spanish artist’s catalog, developing novel ways to present his work. And somehow, the team hasn’t run out of ideas yet.

In conjunction with the Dalí Museum’s current exhibit “Where Ideas Come From: Dalí’s Drawings,” Café Gala’s Chef Chuck Bandel hosts a sold-out celebration of art, food, and the creative forces that connect the two on Wednesday, July 5.

Bandel will offer a tasting menu inspired by Dalì’s watercolor paintings, “guaranteed to delight all of the senses.” The event kicks off with a private viewing of the rarely seen works on paper from The Dalí Museum’s permanent collection, followed by small plates of art-inspired food from the cafe’s executive chef. The museum’s house white and red wine will accompany the spread of fancy bites.

Just like Dalì himself said, “beauty should be edible, or not at all.”

“Where Ideas Come From: Dalí’s Drawings”—which features approximately 100 rarely-seen works from 1916 to 1974—is on display in St. Pete until Oct. 22, in addition to the museum’s permanent collection of art. Subscribe to Creative Loafing newsletters.
