Park West Gallery Presents Destino

But Do You Know What Are You Buying When You Buy the Destino Prints from Park West Gallery?

In the late 1940’s an unlikely alliance was formed when surrealist artist Salvador Dalí and noted family orientated film maker Walt Disney began working together on an animated film production, Destino, (Spanish for “destiny”). The two artistic giants evidently met and Dali was employed at The Disney Company in the mid 1940s, working with John Hench, an exceptional Disney artist. There is an air of deep mystery that surrounds the film and has resulted in stolen artwork, missing originals, outright fakes and total misrepresentations. This puzzling story is explored in stunning detail in an article written for Fine Art Registry® entitled, Park West Gallery Presents Destino - But Do You Know What Are You Buying When You Buy the Destino Prints from Park West Gallery?

Based on the film, there have been reproductions made of the various artworks which have ultimately turned into a series of prints marketed in limited editions of over 1000 of each print and largely marketed by Park West Gallery for thousands of dollars per print. Purchasers have told of how the auctioneers, whether aboard a cruise or on land, characterize in imaginative ways and use questionable techniques to sell these Destino prints. This article is written to sort out the pull-the-wool-over-your-eyes tactics and includes statements from purchasers who claim that that is exactly what occurred.

The tangled mystery that surrounds this film that never came to fruition in the lifetime of Salvador Dali and Walt Disney is a confounding tale and sorted out specifically in this fine investigative article. The truly heartrending fact is that what could have been a wonderful incorporation of surrealistic art and ingenious film making has been relegated to unscrupulous culprits whose sole interest is to fleece pockets.
