Antoni Pixtot is the director of the Dali Museum and was a friend and collaborator of Salvador Dali. Dalí became an early supporter of Antonio Pitxot's work, and eventually asked him to co-design the Dalí Theatre and Museum (Teatre-Museu Dalí) in Figueres, Spain. There is also a permanent exhibition of Pitxot's work on one floor of the museum.

Pitxot and Dalí were nearly inseparable in the last years of Dalí's life: designing Dalí's museum, teaching art, and exchanging ideas about their work. Pitxot has been a protector of Dalí's legacy after his death: He is a member of the board of the Gala Salvador Dalí Foundation, and he has led, and sat on the board, of several other Dalí foundations. He became the museum's director after Dalí's death.
