Artists of the 20th Century: Rene Magritte

Rene Magritte (1898-1967) was a Surrealist ahead of his time. Indeed, the world needed more than a quarter of a century to discover that his work has both philosophical and poetic content that corresponds to certain social and intellectual trends in the second half of the 20th century. This documentary is part of the "Artists of the 20th Century" series that examines the life and work of major artists of the century.
