Outside In: New Murals Inspired by Dalí

In celebration of the SHINE St. Petersburg Mural Festival’s 10-year anniversary, Outside In: New Murals Inspired by Dalí brings the vibrant world of street art into the The Dalí Museum. This unique exhibition invites both current and past SHINE artists to create dynamic murals within the Museum’s gallery, inspired by the surreal genius of Salvador Dalí, his collection and the iconic architecture of the Museum itself.

Since 2015, the installation of 180 murals has transformed downtown St. Pete and the surrounding arts districts. Now, in this gallery setting, visitors can explore these murals up close—experiencing the intricate details and techniques that often go unnoticed in outdoor installations, blurring the lines between the conventional and the unconventional.

By showcasing street art within a museum context, the exhibition offers a fresh perspective on the intersections between public art and the gallery space.

The exhibition is curated by Allison McCarthy, Associate Curator and Preparator at The Dalí Museum, with murals by twelve artists from around the world, including SHINE founders Tes One, Chad Mize, Palehorse and BASK, each of whom brings their own unique interpretation of Dalí’s surrealist legacy. Leading up to the opening, visitors will have the unique opportunity to observe the artists at work as they bring their murals to life.

The exhibition concludes with an interactive experience, YOUR PORTRAIT, where guests can transform their selfie into a digital work art—street art style. Additionally, the AI-powered Dream Tapestry experience offers the ability to transform a written dream into a one-of-a-kind image in the genre of street art.

This special exhibition is included in the price of gallery admission. To reserve your ticket for this exhibit, book your visit during the exhibit timeframe (May 24 – Oct 26, 2025). Tickets are typically available up to 30 days in advance.
