About This Item
NY: Artabras, 1988. Large folio volume in blue boards with color pictorial dust jacket reproducing Magritte's art. "In this comprehensive and provocative study, the art historian Jacques Meuris traces the artist's life and work, surveying his training at the Brussels Academy of Fine Arts; his encounters with Cubism, Dada, Futurism, and the Belgian Surrealists; his discovery of Giorgio de Chirico; and his associations and activities in Paris. Four hundred exquisite illustrations, 110 in colour, show the full range of his work, not just the canvasses for which he is famous but also some lesser-known murals, photographs, sculpture and commercial art. Jacques Meuris's insightful text illuminates Magritte's art, his place among the Surrealists, and his influence on modern painting, particularly Pop art. [will require extra shipping for our international customers]. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
