Magritte or the Object Lesson (01/01/1960)

Production : RTBF, Ministère de l’Instruction publique

Synopsis

The surrealist painter René Magritte questions the objective reality and emphasizes the arbitrariness of the relationship between an object, its image and its name: the evocation of mystery consists of images of familiar things gathered or transformed in such a way that they no longer conform to our ideas, whether naive or wise.
