Just let sleeping surrealists lie
I find it extraordinary a Spanish judge has agreed 30-years dead Salvador Dali can be dug up so a tarot reader from Catalonia can find out whether her hunch that he’s her father is correct.
Maria Pilar Abel Martinez reckons Dali – who famously abhorred sexual contact – got her mother pregnant while working for him. Maybe he did. Maybe he didn’t. But surely the time to be certain has long gone. Along with the inheritance which we can imagine is of no small interest to Ms Martinez.
Rest In Peace has become Rest Until Paternity Test.
