Rene magritte was a surrealist artist he tried to make normal things with a twist and made people think “what is this supposed to be”

He made art for record covers one of his paintings is worth at least 26 million! He became very known for his art that's witty and different 

Surrealism is a  cultural movement that began in 1917 and is mainly known for its visual artworks unrealistic, different scenes most surrealist artists create strange unreal things. And make unrealistic dreams into a reality 

Rene was born on 21 November 1898  in Lessines belgium. His first painting was made in 1926 by the lost jockey and his last painting was in 1967 , the year of his death. He died of pancreatic cancer on 15 August 1967.
