Magritte's Brussels
 
I'll be in Brussels on Friday and Saturday, and am looking for information on where Magritte may have lived, worked, etc. in the city. Most sources don't seem to show much except for La Fleur en Papier Dore, a bar where he used to frequent often. <BR> <BR>Any other surrealism fans out there who can help? (or just those in the know) <BR> <BR>Thanks :)

shell- <BR>sorry i can't help with your specific question, but i can recommend the magritte exhibit at the musee des beaux arts. just a note of caution-i believe the museum shuts between 1-2pm for lunch so plan your timing around that. <BR>they had some great stuff of his.

Ron, what a wonderful article! Thank you! I've printed it out, will investigate the locations and make my way there! <BR> <BR>Amy, thanks for the info about the museum! I'll try and catch it in the morning, so I miss the closing for lunch.
