Cadaqués Meets NewYork

The Statue of Liberty in Cadaqués – Dalí’s Surreal Tribute

In the seaside town of Cadaqués, Salvador Dalí reimagined the Statue of Liberty through his unmistakable surrealist lens. Far from New York’s towering symbol, Dalí’s version stands as a playful and thought-provoking interpretation — blending freedom, irony, and Mediterranean charm.

For Dalí, liberty was not just a monument but a state of mind, transformed by imagination. In Cadaqués, the Statue of Liberty becomes both familiar and strange — a dreamlike echo of the real, reflected through the artist’s eccentric genius.
