DESCRIPTION

Magritte: A Life

The first major biography of the pathbreaking, perpetually influential surrealist artist and iconoclast whose

inspiration can be seen in everyone from Jasper Johns to Beyonc&#233#8212by the celebrated

biographer of C&#233zane and BraqueIn this thought-provoking life of Ren&#233Magritte (1898-1967),

Alex Danchev makes a compelling case for Magritte as the single most significant purveyor of images to

the modern world. Magritte&#8217ssurreal 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&#8217es 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 Andr&#233Breton) 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-andwhite

illustrations, Danchev delves deeply into Magritte&#8217sartistic 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

Beyonc&#233
