“Balmoral” was a mythical and exclusive bar of Madrid. To inaugurate this new phase in their career, Loquillo surprises us with his better CD, that is a fusion of his recognized passion for the rock and roll, his admiration for composers and his weakness for the better crooner’s work.

The exhibition shows the painter’s relation with the people in Cadaqués and the region of the Empordà. There is also an audio-visual assembly with 177 photographies that compose the collection.

The relation of the French photographer Descharnes with Dalí and Gala, began the winter of 1950 in Cadaqués. Since 1955 the photographer made long stays in this locality, which allowed him to accumulate an authentic photographic and filmed chronicle of Dalí.
