René Magritte (1898-1967) René Magritte was born in 1898 in Lessines near Tournai, in the French-speaking part of Belgium. He was raised in Châtelet, near Charleroi. A student from 1916 to 1918 at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels, there he met the brothers Victor and Pierre Bourgeois as well as the painter Pierre-Louis Flouquet. Magritte collaborated in 1919 on the first issue of the magazine Au Volant, edited by the Bourgeois brothers. After a year of military service, Magritte worked as a draftsman, mainly for a Brussels wallpaper manufacturer and, as a freelancer, created posters, promotional material and exhibition stands. It was in 1926 that he painted his first recognized surrealist work, Le Jockey Perdu. In the same year, he signed, with other Belgian surrealists, the pamphlets titled Les Mariés de la tour Eiffel and Deux Disgrâces. Magritte lived from 1927 to 1930 in Le Perreux-sur-Marne, in the Paris region, where he met Hans Arp, André Breton, Salvador Dalí, Paul Eluard and Joan Miró. His provocative article The Words and the Images was published in 1929 in the last issue of La Révolution Surréaliste, a year after the completion of his painting Le Masque Vide.

Parastone has successfully been creating decorative objects for almost 50 years, some of timeless classic beauty and others more aligned with dominant trends. The museum-piece collection presented under the name Mouseion constitutes an important part of the collection. In addition to faithful reproductions of major artworks, the Mouseion series also includes three-dimensional interpretations of paintings and drawings by many artists, from Hieronymus Bosch to Salvador Dalí.

“decorative object, luxury item, table art, collector, interior decoration, statuette, sculpture, no panther, no Orlinski, no Koons, pop art, no Kong, no pompon”
