Description
| [There is no mystery in my paintings that can be explained.] From the conflicts and confusion of his mature years to the discovery, challenge and deepening of his work: ...... A groundbreaking collection of 400 works that chronicles Magritte's entire journey to becoming a "magician of images". This groundbreaking collection of 400 works tells the story of Magritte's career as a "magician of images". Magritte has been hailed as one of the most important Belgian artists of the 20th century, René Magritte, the master of Surrealism, is hailed as one of the most representative Belgian artists of the 20th century. Includes many works that are being published for the first time in Japan, This all-color book introduces carefully selected works that liberate our conception of reality*common sense*. The exhibition covers his childhood when he was famous as a bad boy; his mother's suicide; his encounter with his first love, his wife *Georgette; his student days spent in Futurism and Cubism; the fruition of Surrealism; his unknown unhappy period when he sought Impressionism and Beast School; and his last years when he continued to paint regularly and faced the deepening of his own style. ...... A painter who led an ordinary life that could have belonged to anyone, he painted in an uncharacteristic style that could not be attributed to anyone, but left behind many works during his lifetime that exude a strong personality that fascinates us. This exhibition traces Magritte's life-long experiment with words, ideas, and images on an unprecedented scale, with an unprecedented 400 carefully selected works. The author is an up-and-coming curator and art historian who has worked at the Magritte Museum of Art and is in charge of several projects specializing in René Magritte. The works in this book were carefully selected from among approximately 1,700 works from his lifetime from a researcher's point of view, and were realized in collaboration with an imprint in Magritte's home country of Belgium. This is a must-see book for art fans, tracing the artist's life on a grand scale never seen before.
