Image description

A preeminent Surrealist active in Brussels and Paris, Magritte used traditional painting techniques to create images of realistically rendered objects juxtaposed illogically - comparable in spirit to poet Isidore Ducasse’s definition of beauty as"the chance meeting on a dissection table of a sewing machine and an umbrella." Magritte’s visual paradoxes are designed to undermine our complacent belief in a stable, predictable, rational world.
