520 1 $a"Life magazine wrote that one funhouse at the 1939 New York World's Fair stood out among the others: Salvador Dali's Dream of Venus.".
520 8 $a"The building's modern expressionist exterior, with an entrance framed by a woman's legs, and shocking interior, including the bare-breasted "living liquid ladies" who swam inside the tanks, was a controversial sensation. The funhouse was so successful that it reopened for a second season after the fair closed. But once torn down it faded from memory, and its outlandishness became the stuff of urban myth.
520 8 $aNow, more than sixty years later, a collection of Dream of Venus images by noted photographer Eric Schaal has been discovered and presented here in its depth and beauty. In stunning black-and-white and early Kodachrome, the photographs show both the construction and the completion of the funhouse - from Dali painting a melting clock to showgirls parading for their audience.
520 8 $aSalvador Dali's Dream of Venus reveals not only a mind-boggling work of architecture, but also a unique creation by one of the most fertile imaginations of the twentieth century."--BOOK JACKET.
