# The 1934 civil marriage to Gala organises a public household-and-contract regime over access to the work

Date: 1934

## The fact

On 30 January 1934 [Dalí](/people/salvador-dali) and Gala contracted a civil marriage that organised a public management regime over sittings, sales, and access.

It is one event.

## Context

User-bounded: legal-public management, not gossip. Gala is also a collaborator-sitter on improving museum rows.

Salvador Dalí’s documented role is bounded by other offices and collaborators named in the sources below. Sharing a field with them is not a reason to drop a documented act, and it is not a reason to assign later consequences done in the name after death.

Civil marriage 30 January 1934 (later church 1958). Gala managed contracts, sitters, and access. Assistants and dealers executed. Gendered and managerial capture of studio labour is documented as a public business form, not bedroom gossip.
Named person as heading of the dated public instrument. Later editors, museums, printers, or offices share publication. Complex where later carriers date the row.
