When a piece of artwork really inspires you, sometimes you just want to jump inside it and wander around. And now you can. 

“Dreams of Dalí” takes us inside the mind of the legendary surrealist Salvador Dalí by transporting us into one of his early paintings, Archeological Reminiscence of Millet’s “Angelus” (1935). Just put on the virtual-reality headset, and you’ll be able to move around inside the painting in a fully immersive 3-D environment. You’ll look beyond what was depicted in the original frame and even hear Dali’s possible thoughts as he was imagining his surreal world. 

“We are excited that our partnership with the Dalí Museum has allowed us an opportunity to explore a new way to look at art,” remarked GS&P co-founder Jeff Goodby. “Dalí was a true visionary, and no other artist would be a better fit for this project.”

“Dreams of Dalí” will be open to the public at the Dalí Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida. A 360-degree-video version of the experience, involving simpler VR gadgets like Google Cardboard or Samsung Gear VR, is also available at dreamsofdali.org.

On January 30, 2016, at 7:25 p.m., just in time for Super Bowl 50, The Bay Lights were relit and became a permanent part of the western span of the Bay Bridge.

In partnership with ILLUMINATE, we created a 30-second video to celebrate the relighting and welcome back the iconic light sculpture. The entire commercial was created in-house at GS&P, including the music, logo, sound design, visuals and editing. “There is a lot of love for The Bay Lights project,” said PJ Koll, director of GS&P’s internal production studio. 

“The commercial … is not only respectful of The Bay Lights art but is a true love letter to the entire city of San Francisco,” said Ben Davis, founder and chief visionary officer of ILLUMINATE, the nonprofit presenting organization for The Bay Lights.
