Magritte
Suzi Gablik
|
| ‘An important book for anyone interested in Magritte or in the wider issues involved in twentieth-century painting . . . highly intelligent, carefully researched, thought-provoking . . . will surely be a standard work’ | | – The Times Literary Supplement |
| ‘Gablik is always interesting, lucid and, best of all, mad about Magritte’ | – Tom Stoppard,
The Sunday Times |
In her classic study, Suzi Gablik elucidates Magritte’s major themes by classifying his work in related groups, each painting having a positional value in a sequence, in addition to its intrinsic value. She shows how Magritte was never involved in the experimental techniques and stylistic innovations of the other Surrealists, and how, as a result, his work has proved to hold more options for the future.
