The pavilion featured a spectacular facade full of protuberances, vaguely reminiscent of the Pedrera building by Antoni Gaudí. The main door was flanked by two pillars representing two female legs wearing stockings and high-heeled shoes. Through the openings of the irregular façade, visitors could see reproductions of the Saint John the Baptist by Leonardo da Vinci and The Birth of Venus by Botticelli.

Salvador Dalí, "La persistenza della memoria"
"L’arte surrealista è come un sogno danzante tra le pieghe della realtà, dove il pensiero si libera dalle catene della logica per attirarti nelle reti dorate delle sue dimensioni alternative. Le immagini si fondono e ci confondono, creando visioni misteriose e suggestive che puntano all’incantamento. Un viaggio nei cunicoli ammalianti dell’inconscienza, dove la razionalità cede il passo all’irrazionale e l’ordinario si trasforma in straordinario. I colori, le forme e le idee si svelano come segreti nascosti nell’ombra di un sogno, invitandoci a esplorare i confini della mente umana e dei nostri spazi interiori che fanno da specchio deformante alla vita che brulica e arranca là fuori."
Da "Quasi autunno" - La persistenza del calore tra Magritte e Dalí
