The Spanish woman who believed that Salvador Dali was her father is not the daughter of the surrealist artist. This is how the DNA test showed, of which the painter was exhumed in June of this year.
Maria Pilar Abel Martinez, a lucky card reader born in 1956, says that her mother had a relationship with Dali a year before she was born.
But now the Dali Foundation says the test carried out has definitely proved that the girl and artist have no connection. The DNA test indicates that Pilar Aben is not the daughter of Dali”, the foundation has declared, which manages the assets left by the painter.
The publication of the analysis result comes six weeks from the exhumation of the artist's body from an underground museum dedicated to his life and work in northern Spain.
If it had resulted in ties, Mrs. Martinez could have taken over some of Dali's wealth, which he left to the Spanish state after his death in 1989, at the age of 85.
A large number of Dali's history connoisseurs had expressed their surprise at the woman's statement.
His biographer, Ian Gibson, quoted the painter as saying: “I am impotent. You must be impotent to become a great painter” “It is unknown how the lady was told when she was young that she was the painter's daughter”, he told the media.
