Salvador Dali


The visit to UOB Plaza gave me the opportunity to marvel at Salvador Dali's Homage to Sir Isaac Newton.  This Spanish artist is primarily known as a painter, but I recall reading somewhere that the he was also interested in mathematics and science.  The sculpture to the left is shown with a hole in the torso to (reportedly) signify an "open-heart" and another hole in the head to signify an "open-mind."  Truly fascinating, a philosophy for the benefit of mankind...
