Rene Magrit "nevidljivi čovek među nadrealistima" dobio je svoj muzej u gradu u kom je proveo svoj stvaralački vek. Nakon svečanog otvaranja održanog 20. maja, muzej će početi sa radom 2. juna ove godine.
Citat:As of Wednesday, the 20th century surrealist who famously painted a pipe with the comment "this is not a pipe" finally has his own temple, in the heart of his home city of Brussels. But, like the artist himself, the ultra-classic museum front gives away little of the tricks that lie inside.
But check again: Some of the windows reflect clouds patterns other than those of Belgium's unpredictable skies. Surely, the man with the look of an accountant and the fantasy of a wide-eyed eccentric would have chuckled. More than 40 years after his death, still nothing is quite what it seems.

Citat: 'I think Magritte is our best ambassador. Like Picasso in Paris and Van Gogh in Amsterdam, he deserves a dedicated museum", Charly Herscovici, Chairman of the Magritte Foundation told Reuters at an event to mark its opening on Wednesday.
Described by some as Belgium's only non-fictional famous person, Magritte is regarded as the country's greatest 20th century painter.
His surrealism features impossible combinations of everyday elements and 250 works are on display.
