Sinossi
Charles Singullier ha deciso di cedere a una frivolezza: al mercato delle pulci di Bruxelles ha comprato una vecchia bombetta. Non appena il cappello gli si posa sulla testa si apre una crepa nella sua vita di impiegato modello: è risucchiato nell'universo onirico di René Magritte. Per trovare la chiave che lo porterà fuori dal labirinto, accompagnato da un'affascinante guida, Singullier dovrà penetrare nei misteri delle opere del maestro del surrealismo, interrogandosi sullo spazio che hanno la fantasia e l'amore nella sua esistenza. Questa non è una semplice biografia, ma un racconto che si diverte a giocare con Magritte nel suo campo d'azione preferito, invitando il lettore a mettere in discussione le sue certezze e a lasciarsi travolgere dall'immaginazione.

Belgian Rene Magritte was a surrealist painter. Images abound of his wearing a bowler, and bowlers are featured in several of his paintings. Here he is wearing it, and 368 of his most famous paintings. https://www.wikiart.org/en/rene-magritte D. B. Johnson focused on that hat in a children’s picture b Leggi tutto

Because of Magritte’s most famous painting, The Son of Man (the businessman in a bowler hat whose face is obscured by a green appl Leggi tutto
A surrealistic biography of Magritte is fitting, I suppose, but it is also too clever by half. It’s funny how I can find a surrealistic image to be quite arresting, but more often than not a surrealistic story to be annoying.
Why is it too short? I can say there's not much plot but the artstyle is like I entered an art gallery while I was reading this comic. Some parts may be offensive to some readers regarding some double meaning dialogues and some parts trying to focus on nudity. I don't even want to understand the plot. Leggi tutto
Thomas Campi's artwork is beautiful, Vincent Zabus's story is non-sensical and offers very little information about Magritte himself. The subtitle is apt: this is not a biography. I kinda wanted it to be one. If you stumble across this book in an art museum gift store, it's certainly worth a skim fo Leggi tutto
Zeer surrealistische wijze om Margrittes leven te verstrippen. Kan niet passender. Mooi ! Zie ook deze bespreking van De Stripspeciaalzaak : http://www.stripspeciaalzaak.be/2016-...

I can't help but compare this with the other books in the Art Masters series, some of which I've loved, others I've liked less. Unfortunately this falls in the latter category. I think that so far, they've all been visually stunning, borrowing from the artists' style and famous works, the books have Leggi tutto
