The San Francisco Musem of Modern Art treats us to over 70 pieces from Surrealist artist Rene Magritte, 1898 – 1967.
“This exhibition, the first to look exclusively at Magritte’s late career, examines his most important bodies of work from the 1940s through the 1960s, and shows how they marked a fundamental shift in painting from Modernism to our own time…the works reveal Magritte as an artist acutely attuned to the paradoxes at work within reality, and an enduring champion of the role of mystery in life and art. “
