René Magritte (1898-1967) René Magritte was born in 1898 in Lessines near Tournai, in the French-speaking part of Belgium. He grew up in Châtelet, in the vicinity of Charleroi. A student from 1916 to 1918 at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels, where 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 revue Au Volant, edited by the Bourgeois brothers. After a year of military service, Magritte worked as a designer, mainly for a Brussels wallpaper maker and, as a freelancer, created posters, advertising material, and stands for exhibitions. It was in 1926 that he painted his first recognized surrealist work, Le Jockey Perdu. In the same year, he signed—along with other Belgian surrealists—the pamphlets titled Les Mariés de la tour Eiffel and Deux Disgrâces. Magritte stayed from 1927 to 1930 at Le Perreux-sur-Marne, near Paris, where he met Hans Arp, André Breton, Salvador Dalí, Paul Éluard, and Joan Miró. His provocative article The Words and the Images was published in 1929 in the last issue of La Révolution Surréaliste, one year after the creation of his painting Le Masque Vide.
Parastone has successfully created decorative objects for almost 50 years, ranging from pieces of timeless classical beauty to others aligned with current 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.
