P.S. ARTS To Go! René Magritte Surrealist Painting with Mr. Oscar

About the activity:

Rene Magritte was born in Lessines, Belgium in 1898. He was a visual artist primarily known for his oil paintings. He is most often associated with the Surrealists, a group of artists who were concerned with creating art work that came from the unconscious mind. Surrealists often painted their dreams, creating images that didn’t always make sense to the viewer. Magritte would often pair unusual objects together to create his surreal images. Magritte is recognized for his humorous, witty, thought-provoking approach to surrealism.
