Magritte
This is not a book.The everyday mysteries of surrealism representing Belgium.
From a picture of a man in a fedora floating in the sky to a picture of a pipe above the caption, "This is not a pipe," Renee Magritte (1898-1967) created an echo chamber of objects and images, names and objects, reality and representation.
Like other surrealist works, Magritte's paintings combine precise imitative techniques with abnormal and marginalized configurations (closet-sized combs, rocks floating in the sky, clouds flowing through open doors, etc.) that ignore the laws of scale, logic, and science.As a result, direct and confusing areas were born, sometimes witty, sometimes anxious, and always leading us to look beyond what we see.
In this introductory book, we explore Magritte's vast repertoire of visual humor, paradoxes, and surprises, rewatching not only paintings but also our sense of self and the world to this day.
