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. Studying from 1916 to 1918 at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels, there he met brothers Victor and Pierre Bourgeois as well as 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, freelance, created posters, advertising materials 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, pamphlets titled Les Mariés de la tour Eiffel and Deux Disgrâces. Magritte stayed 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 Les Mots et les Images was published in 1929 in the final issue of La Révolution Surréaliste, a year after the creation of his painting Le Masque Vide.
