Magritte or the Object Lesson (1960)
• January 1st, 1960 • 0h 14min
Documentary
Overview
The surrealist painter René Magritte questions the objective reality and emphasizes the arbitrariness of the relationship between an object, its image and its name: the evocation of mystery consists of images of familiar things gathered or transformed in such a way that they no longer conform to our ideas, whether naive or wise.
