The Samsung Art Store – which enables The Frame owners to continuously transform any space with over 2,300 pieces of digital art, including works from famous artists, museums, and industry tastemakers, has welcomed 12 of Dalí’s most well known masterpieces.
Partnering with the Fundació Gala-Salvador Dalí, the private cultural institution founded by the painter himself with the mission of promoting his artistic, cultural, and intellectual works in Spain and abroad, the Samsung Art Store states that is is constantly striving to provide homeowners with more artistic options.
“This partnership with Samsung gives the Fundació Gala-Salvador Dalí a global stage for sharing Dalí’s dynamic masterpieces and legacy with an entirely new, digitally native generation,” says Andrea Fisher, managing director of merchandise licensing at Artists Rights Society, the rights organization which helped secure an agreement between Fundació Gala-Salvador Dalí and Samsung.
“These pieces, selected especially in partnership with Samsung Art Store allow us to show off Dalí’s most striking masterpieces and the stunning display The Frame is capable of.”

Known for an instantly recognizable surrealist style characterized by dreamlike imagery, mind-bending illusions, and meticulous attention to detail, Salvador Dalí remains one of the most enduring and enigmatic artists of the last 100 years. With paintings that invite the viewer to step closer and examine unexpected interplay between the bizarre and mundane, Dalí has been captivating audiences since his first work was displayed in Barcelona, Spain, in 1925.
The featured works that are now available from the Samsung Art Store include some of the artist’s most notable pieces like “The Persistence of Memory” (1931), “The Temptation of St. Anthony” (1946), and “Swans Reflecting Elephants” (1937), have been curated by Samsung and sourced from the Fundació Gala-Salvador Dalí and other leading institutions and private collections across the world.
Dalí, born in the Catalonian town of Figueres in northeast Spain spent much of his life in that region, creating groundbreaking artworks which would go on to inspire artists and viewers alike for generations. But Dalíalways aspired to share his artistic vision with a much wider audience, bringing his striking, surrealist paintings to exhibitions in Paris, London, and New York – and simultaneously seeking creative inspiration and collaboration with world-renowned artists and intellectuals of his time including Coco Chanel, Sigmund Freud, and Pablo Picasso, among others.
In honor of Dalí’s international legacy and the high demand for Dalí artworks on the Samsung Art Store, Samsung recognized the importance of securing this all-important partnership for lovers of art across the globe. Similarly, Fundació Gala-Salvador Dalí is expanding how they can provide instant, digital access to some of Dalí’s most artistically significant artworks to millions with this special partnership.
“Samsung Art Store connects millions of The Frame owners with world-renowned art from hundreds of museums, institutions, and private collections across the world, and we’re thrilled to partner with Fundació Gala-Salvador Dalí to bring one of the platform’s most searched-for and requested artists to Samsung Art Store,” comments Daria Greene, global curator at Samsung Art Store.
“These artworks from Dalí’s incredible catalog are as unique and visually arresting today as they were the day they were painted, and we’re so delighted to be giving them a digital platform for new audiences who can enjoy them outside of a museum, at a home.”
