The works on display have been insured for around 400 million yuan ($63.32 million).

The top two works on display are oil paintings, Napoleon's Nose and Dematerialization Near the Nose of Nero. The former is insured for around 56 million yuan.

There' are 12 paintings and two drawings at the show. But beside the paintings and other art, the foundation also displayed model parts of Dali's residences to give visitors a better understanding of the painter.

Sevillano says that the aim of the show is to show Dali as understood by the media in the last century.

Dali was a pioneer when it came to building a brand. He did this in the 1920s, and he is still popular today.

The exhibits also include about 300 newspaper and magazine clippings. The clippings either have stories on Dali or are pieces written by him.

Items that Dali once used in his creations like a magnifying glass and a palette are also on display.

Sevillano says the foundation is here to help educate art lovers in China about Dali. He says that if this is not done, it will lead to an unstructured and disorganized market for Dali's works in China, especially for his sculptures.
