Book excerpt: "This essay [Margritte and Dali by Dr. William Jeffett] and its related exhibtion consider some points of contact and parallellism between Margritte and Dali, as well as the divergences in their work. Both deploy some common images, but,at the same time, they often work with them in different ways. The exhibition proposes several categories as a way of exploring these relationships and divergences. Further, it considers the years of greatest proximity bewteen the two: when they spent most time together and when they were frequently exhibiting together primarily in exhibitions organized by the Surrealists."--from Magritte and Dali by Dr. Jeffett
Download or read book Ren Magritte written by Catherine Defeyt and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2023-08-15 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book-length material study of the works of Belgian Surrealist René Magritte. René Magritte (1898–1967) is the most famous Belgian artist of the twentieth century and a celebrated representative of the Surrealist movement. Much has been written about his practices, artistic community, and significance within the history of modernism, but little has been documented regarding his process. This volume examines fifty oil paintings made by Magritte between 1921 and 1967, now held at the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium. This technical study of his works using noninvasive scientific imaging and chemical analysis reveals the artist’s painting materials, his habit of overpainting previous compositions, and the origins and mechanisms of surface and pigment degradation. Of interest to conservators, scientists, curators, and enthusiasts of twentieth-century art, this book expands our understanding of Magritte the artist and provides new and useful findings that will inform strategies for the future care of his works.

Book excerpt: Dit najaar wijden de Koninklijke Musea voor Schone Kunsten van België een uitzonderlijke tentoonstelling aan Salvador Dalí en René Magritte. De expo belicht de verhoudingen tussen beide surrealisten en toont hun onmiskenbare wederzijdse beïnvloeding. Dalí en Magritte ontmoeten elkaar in het voorjaar van 1929 in Parijs. In augustus van datzelfde jaar reist Magritte op uitnodiging van Dalí naar Cadaqués, de thuishaven van de Spaanse schilder. Die zogenaamde surrealistische zomer van 1929 - ook Éluard, Miró en Buñuel maken deel uit van het gezelschap - zal van groot belang blijken te zijn voor beide kunstenaars.0Zowel Dalí als Magritte tasten de grenzen van de werkelijkheid af: ze betwisten onze blik en gooien onze zekerheden om. Hun stijl en persoonlijkheden waren erg verschillend en hun wegen zouden uiteindelijk scheiden. Nochtans bestaat er een fascinerend verwantschap tussen de Catalaan en de Belg.0De tentoonstelling werpt licht op de persoonlijke, filosofische en esthetische relatie van deze iconen van het surrealisme aan de hand van meer dan 100 schilderijen, sculpturen, foto's, tekeningen, films en archiefstukken.00Exhibition: K.M.S.K.B / M.R.B.A., Brussels, Belgium (11.10.2019-09.02.2020).

Download or read book Ren Magritte written by Xavier Canonne and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2017 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A richly illustrated book that dives into Ren� Magritte's photo and film archive, revealing a lesser-known side of the surrealist master. In this richly illustrated book, Xavier Canonne, director of the Museum of Photography in Charleroi, dives into Ren� Magritte's photo and film archive, revealing a lesser-known side of the surrealist master. Discovered in the 1970s, more than ten years after the artist's death, this collection gives us access to a family album, an informal Magritte, from his childhood to the last years of his life. We see Magritte with his parents and brothers, as a newly married man with his wife Georgette, and with his contemporaries in the Brussels Surrealist group. Spontaneous snapshots are complemented by posed scenes, including improvised tableaux with his fellow artists, parodies of famous movies consciously arranged with Georgette, portraits of Magritte at his easel at home, and staged photographs as models for his paintings. Images where the artist and his friends hide their faces or turn away from the camera particularly resonate with his paintings and his investigation of the 'hidden visible'. While other Surrealists such as Man Ray and Raoul Ubac made photography an essential part of their work, Magritte remained a true painter. Yet this book demonstrates that his photographs and home movies are so pervaded with his spirit that they are inseparable from his oeuvre of paintings.

Download or read book Bruegel s Winter Scenes written by Tine Meganck and published by Agrarian Studies. This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This focused volume presents a deep exploration and new interpretations of the winter paintings of Pieter Bruegel the Elder (ca. 1525-1569). By applying new methodological approaches and interdisciplinary research to these masterpieces of Flemish Renaissance art, including Winter Landscape with Skaters and Bird Trap (1565) and The Census at Bethlehem (1566), both at the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, the book offers an enhanced understanding of the painter's relationship to his time and the extent to which his winter landscapes were meant to reflect real-life situations. After tracing how these paintings have been understood over time, the essays propose new insights into such issues as whether Bruegel depicts the plight of the local populace during winter and whether The Census at Bethlehem challenges or reaffirms central power structures. Abundantly illustrated, Bruegel's Winter Scenes is both a thorough examination and a celebration of these widely admired images. Distributed for Mercatorfonds.
Download or read book Magritte written by Alex Danchev and published by Pantheon. This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first major biography of the pathbreaking, perpetually influential surrealist artist and iconoclast whose inspiration can be seen in everyone from Jasper Johns to Beyoncé—by the celebrated biographer of Cézanne and Braque In this thought-provoking life of René Magritte (1898-1967), Alex Danchev makes a compelling case for Magritte as the single most significant purveyor of images to the modern world. Magritte’s surreal sensibility, deadpan melodrama, and fine-tuned outrageousness have become an inescapable part of our visual landscape, through such legendary works as The Treachery of Images (Ceci n’est pas une pipe) and his celebrated iterations of Man in a Bowler Hat. Danchev explores the path of this highly unconventional artist from his middle-class Belgian beginnings to the years during which he led a small, brilliant band of surrealists (and famously clashed with André Breton) to his first major retrospective, which traveled to the United States in 1965 and gave rise to his international reputation. Using 50 color images and more than 160 black-and-white illustrations, Danchev delves deeply into Magritte’s artistic development and the profound questions he raised in his work about the very nature of authenticity. This is a vital biography for our time that plumbs the mystery of an iconoclast whose influence can be seen in everyone from Jasper Johns to Beyoncé.
