520 8  Rene Magritte's surreal sensibility, deadpan melodrama, 
       and fine-tuned outrageousness have all become inescapably 
       part of our times. But these groundbreaking subversions 
       all came from a middle-class Belgian gent, who kept a 
       modest house in a Brussels suburb and whose first one-man 
       show sold absolutely nothing. Through a deep examination 
       of Magritte's friendships and his artistic development, 
       Alex Danchev explores the path of an highly unconventional
       artist who posed profound questions about the relationship
       between image and reality, challenged the very nature of 
       authenticity and whose influence can be seen in the work 
       of everyone from Jasper Johns to Beyonce
