The Report we now present offers an overview of our institution’s activity during this remarkable period, with particular emphasis laid on the most notable achievements. In recounting the past year we must perforce speak of the centenary of Salvador Dalí’s birth, since our institution has played an essential role in commemorating the event. Over the course of the year this was undoubtedly the most important recurring theme for our Board of Trustees and for the Foundation team as a whole, who through their dedication and sound professionalism successfully faced up to the dual responsibility of organising an international event of great magnitude while at the same time keeping the institution’s usual activities fully up and running. What is more, this project not only managed to achieve all the objectives pursued for disseminating the Master’s life and oeuvre, but also afforded the institution itself a unique opportunity for global projection that it managed to turn to good advantage. With nearly 1,400,000 visitors, our museums’ activities showed most notable growth, comfortably exceeding at all centres the peak figures achieved in previous years. To this figure we might add the approximately 1,740,000 visits received at our Web site over the same period. The cultural activities and promotion and dissemination work carried out worldwide during 2004 and these first months of 2005, the programmes set under way to achieve deseasonalisation of visits towards periods with lower visitor attendance, the development of relations with the tourism sector at various levels and the major investments made by the Foundation on security, environmental quality and management capacity lead us to expect to be able to continue to receive similar numbers of visitors, though now without the driving force of the centenary. Our Foundation has become definitively enshrined as the chief academic reference worldwide for all matters related with Salvador Dalí. The Centre for Dalinian Studies played a leading role in drawing up the content of the centenary, both directly through the writing of articles, theses, exhibition catalogues, books, etc. and indirectly by facilitating, supporting and supervising an abundant and wide-ranging production by third parties: books, documentaries, multimedia publications, films, articles, academic research projects, theatre and ballet works, musical compositions, exhibitions, catalogues and much more besides. As Dalí Year Commissioner, the Centre’s Director fulfilled the mission entrusted to her by the Ministry of Culture, coordinating the centenary timetable, its events and projects and supervising its content. The year 2004 also stands as a landmark as regards Salvador Dalí rights management: the legal dispute over effective control of intangible rights for Salvador Dalí that had brought the Foundation up against the company Demart Pro Arte B.V. in courts worldwide was finally brought to an end by bringing that company under the ownership of the Foundation. The Foundation thus brought to a culmination a long and difficult process in its quest for worldwide control over the Master’s rights, and has now placed itself in an advantageous position to take its founding purposes still further and pursue them more effectively. All this represented a significant all-round increase in our institution’s activities, putting its organisational capacity and response capabilities to the test. In addition to its special dedication to the events in commemoration of the centenary of Dalí’s birth, the Foundation kept under way its technical research programmes, its acquisitions policy, the task of the Dalí works Authorising and Cataloguing Committee, the legal expert-advice service, the business development programmes and work in the fight against fraud, among other aspects. I can indeed vouch that the usual levels of excellence have been achieved in all these fields. In short, we have come successfully through the test of the centenary and have managed to turn to good advantage the high-profile platform the event afforded the institution, which is thus bound to find its work facilitated in the future. Finally, the excellent economic results we present reflect dynamic and efficient management. Thanks to this we will be in a position to ensure a high level of self-funded investments and great dynamism for carrying out the exceptional role we play within our socio-economic setting and, essentially, for achieving our founding purposes. Ramon Boixadós Chairman 007 La Fondation Gala-Salvador Dalí vient de clore un exercice, celui de 2004, qui peut sans doute être qualifié de l’un des plus intenses et de plus fructueux de son existence en ce qui a trait à la réalisation de ses objectifs statutaires. Le Mémoire que nous présentons donne une vision générale de l’activité de notre institution pendant cette période singulière, mettant l’accent sur ce qui en a constitué les enjeux les plus remarquables. Pour décrire l’année qui vient de s’achever, il faut forcément évoquer le centenaire de la naissance de Salvador Dalí, puisque notre institution a joué un rôle fondamental dans sa commémoration. Au long de l’exercice, le centenaire a indubitablement été le thème récurrent et majeur pour notre Patronat et pour toute l’équipe humaine de la Fondation, qui, par leur dévouement et leur professionnalisme, ont assumé avec succès la double responsabilité d’organiser une manifestation internationale de grande envergure tout en assurant le fonctionnement des activités habituelles de l’institution. Au reste, avec ce projet, non seulement nous avons atteint tous les objectifs que nous nous étions fixés en termes de divulgation de la vie et de l’œuvre du Maître, mais l’institution elle-même a bénéficié d’une opportunité unique de rayonnement international dont elle a su tirer parti. Avec près de 1 400 000 visiteurs, l’activité de nos musées a connu une croissance remarquable et dépassé largement les records atteints jusque là par ses établissements. À ceci, il faut ajouter les quelque 1 740 000 visiteurs qui ont consulté notre site web durant la même période. Les activités culturelles et les actions de promotion et de vulgarisation menées à bien dans le monde entier en 2004 et durant les premiers mois de 2005, les programmes mis en oeuvre afin d’obtenir un étalement des visites au profit de périodes de moindre affluence publique, le resserrement des relations avec le secteur touristique à divers niveaux, et l’important effort d’investissement consenti par la Fondation en matière de sécurité, de qualité ambiante et de capacité de gestion, tout ceci laisse augurer que nous devrions dans l’avenir immédiat continuer de recevoir autant de visiteurs, cette fois sans compter sur le moteur du centenaire. Notre Fondation a été définitivement consacrée comme principale référence académique à l’échelle
