Magritte Reviews
-
A great collection of Magritte's paintings (and collages and sculpture) showing many of the famous images and giving the background on their creation. The text details Magritte's lack of interest in fame (which may be one reason he's not as well known as Dali), and his desire to create paintings that shocked with illogical mixes of images, rather than symbolizing or dramatizing a hidden meaning. If you like Magritte, this is outstanding.

Great essays, some mention art works but not all the art work is shown.

Beautiful. I'm so glad to have a Magritte collection and this one would only be bested by a complete catalogue. Magritte greatly influenced my artistic vision and my worldview in my teens and twenties. His work reaches into my heart.
