The 2025 edition of art KARLSRUHE, the International Fair for Classic Modern and Contemporary Art, was inaugurated yesterday, Wednesday, February 19th, in Germany.
This highly anticipated event takes place annually in Baden-Württemberg, one of Germany’s richest states, strategically located within the border triangle that connects Germany, Switzerland, and France.
Art KARLSRUHE offers a unique opportunity to explore over 120 years of art history, showcasing a wide range of works from both the 20th century and contemporary artists. The fair features national and international galleries that display a comprehensive array of artworks, from classic masterpieces to contemporary pieces created directly in the artists’ studios.
Among the highlights of this year’s fair is a spectacular exhibition of bronze sculptures from the Dalí Universe collection, curated over the past four decades by Beniamino Levi, President of the Dalí Universe.
Visitors will have the chance to view some of Salvador Dalí’s most iconic works in three-dimensional form, carefully selected from the Dalí Universe collection. These sculptures represent Dalí’s genius in a way that goes beyond his well-known two-dimensional paintings.
The works of Salvador Dalí displayed at the Mollbrinks Gallery booth caught the attention of the German public and visitors during the first day of the opening.
Also on display is the museum version of Dalí’s “Homage to Fashion”, which is being exhibited for the first time in Germany, with a value exceeding one million euros. The sculpture has indeed been given a very strategic and important position, as per the wishes of the fair’s organizers.
Salvador Dalí, the renowned Master of Surrealism, was not confined to painting; his creative expression spanned across a variety of mediums, including sculpture.
At Art KARLSRUHE, Mollbrinks Gallery is currently displaying stunning works such as “Space Elephant”, “Alice in Wonderland”, and “Dance of Time III”, which features Dalí’s famous melting clock, originally seen in his 1931 masterpiece “The Persistence of Memory”.
Art KARLSRUHE will remain open throughout the weekend, closing on Sunday, February 22nd, 2025. It promises to be an exceptional event for art lovers and collectors alike.
