Magritte’s
work displayed in the five floors of the new museum is magnificent: 250
works that reflect their evolution from their geometric experiments to
creating your own world in an intellectual context that surreal relied
on to rise to the appearance and discovery the essence of things. The
effort of Magritte baffled as ever. Day-night double in the famous’
Empire of Light '; subjects transcended by their environment as’ Sky
Bird’ and 'white page’, which overlaps with the moon a mass of floating
foliage, when it should be behind, the mighty mountain eagle protects
the blue of the night a nest, or 'black magic’ in which the bust and
head of women are confused with the blue sky unfold before the visitor
in a regions.
Besides, the museum of Fine Arts in Brussels has open a new wing dedicated to the artist: the Musée Magritte Museum (MMM). Both institutions are complementary: The MMM, in the city center, will expose more works of the painter and the house focuses more on the hidden part of Magritte’s life.
