Artist Plans Rhinoceros Theme
For Royal Pre-Nuptial Ballet
By PAUL MOSCANYI
United Press Correspondent
New York (U.R) Salvador
Dali plans to costume an entire
ballet in white rhinoceros horns
as a "gorgeous parade of chas
tity" heralding the wedding of
Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier.
The ballet is to be created for
performance at the Monte Carlo
Opera House in the gala week
before the : April 18 wedding.
Its backers said the idea came
from Rainier's mother, Princess
Antoinette.. .
Horn Motif :
The rhinoceros horn motif,
however, came solely from the
surrealistic artist who once
leaned to the melting watch face.
Dali now feels that "rhinocero
sism will .catch the soul of our
time." :
"The horn of the white rhinoc
eros is the successor to the horn
of the unicorn .and is, like its
ancestor, in the middle ages, the
symbol of chastity," the mus
tachioed Dali said. "Nothing
could be a better symbol . for
such a noble occasion as this
princely wedding.
""Every dancer will be clad in
a costume having the form of
the horn of the white rhinoceros.
It will be like a gorgeous parade
of chastity."
Zoo Rejects Idea
The Bronx Zoo said Dali was
off his easel if he thought the
unicorn was the ancestor of the
white rhino. '
"The unicorn was a purely
imaginery creature and there
fore couldn't leave any off
spring," a zoo spokesman said.
"The white rhinoceros is a pro
saic, living animal,-though rare.
It is found wild in Africa and in
zoos in Europe and Africa."
Dali was not troubled by such
zoological considerations. , .
"Our century has been called
at times the.age of Communism,
the age of capitalism, th'e age of
anxiety and the age of jazz," he
said, "but if you look beneath
the surface you realize that this
is the. age of the - white rhino
ceros." .
