A quintessential book of the legendary Belgian surreal artist, Rene\u0301 Magritte. His biography is a key element of his art. His life was infused with bizarre moments – a surreal journey oscillating between fact and fiction that he always conducted as the straight-faced bowler-hatted man.<\/p>\n

The events of Magritte\u2019s childhood played an important part in creating the surrealist, but it was his popular culture borrowings from crime fiction, advertising, and postcards that has made his work instantly recognizable. The often unreliable nature of Magritte\u2019s accounts of his own life have transformed his public image into a kind of fictional character rather than a \u2018real person\u2019. He would shape his own life story to be his own surreal work of art.<\/p>\n
