À propos de la quatrième de couverture

The first major biography of the pathbreaking, perpetually influential surrealist artist René Magritte--from the celebrated biographer of Braque and Cézanne.

In this stimulating life of René Magritte (1898-1967), Alex Danchev makes a case for the artist as the single most significant purveyor of images to the modern world. His surreal sensibility, deadpan melodrama, and fine-tuned outrageousness have all become inescapably part of our visual landscape through legendary works such as The Treachery of Ima
