Omnibus: The Fame and Shame of Salvador Dali

on BBC One London

In the second and concluding part of the biography of artist Salvador Dali, Ian Gibson explores Dali and his wife Gala's wealth and celebrity in the USA. The programme looks at the commercialisation and the dominating themes of Dali's later work, which included impotence, sexual voyeurism and the latest scientific discoveries, and examines his controversial declining years which were plagued by tax problems, fakes of his work, and his physical decay.
