A Salvador Dali exhibition in Italy took a surreal turn when police officers seized 21 suspected forgeries that were on show.

The works, including tapestries, drawings and engravings, were seized from Dalí: Between Art and Myth which opened in Parma's Palazzo Tarasconi on Saturday.

The raid came after a tip-off from the Fundación Gala - Salvador Dalí which is responsible for managing the artist's legacy. Suspicions were raised previously about an exhibition with the same name in Rome.

Experts are now examining the seized works in a bid to clarify their origin. The firm responsible for the show said it will "cooperate" with the investigation.

Staff at the Art Gallery of New South Wales were told 45 jobs will go as the Australian institution wrestles with a $4.9 million budget deficit.

The Sydney gallery run by Maud Page, who became its first female director in March, has not been able to rule out further job losses and could even scale back exhibitions in a bid to save money.

Page was deputy to Michael Brand who oversaw a $227 million overhaul of the gallery including the opening of a new building in 2022 which has failed to sufficiently boost its income to meet increased running costs.

One show that will go ahead is Mike Hewson's The Key's Under the Mat which opens on Saturday and transforms the gallery's Nelson Packer Tank into an artistic playground complete with sculptures, a sauna and steam-room and five huge barbecues for cooking communal meals.
