Gallerie d'Art
by
Jerry Jones
LOADSTAR has another exhibit in
Francois Tremain's digital fine arts
gallery, Gallerie d'Art. In this
series, the curator provides
reproductions and commentary on some
of the most important artists and art
movements.
This month's exhibit features the
work of the 20th Century surrealist,
Rene' Magritte (1898-1967).
Magritte was the central core of
the Belgian surrealist movement. Like
his fellow surrealists, Magritte used
dreamlike imagery from the mind's
subconscious to convey ideas and evoke
emotions. In doing so, he rebelled
against the cultural and aesthetic
prejudice of the day.
In many ways, Magritte was viewed as
a rebel by his own revolutionary
movement: Magritte scorned most of his
fellow artists' beliefs and invented
his own rules. Later, Magritte even
rejected the old style surrealism that
he had helped create.
But while the surrealist movement
had its share of controversy, it
remained a vital force in the art
world. Magritte and his fellow
surrealists' visions inspired and
influenced a new generation of artists
that is still painting today.
To view five of Magritte's
paintings, choose the "Run it" option

Jerry captured the images with
COMPUTEREYES (tm) and presented them
via COMMUNIQUE', a graphics and text
presentation system designed by Greg
Malone and Alan Gardner.
