Slide1: 

20000005 Kang, Song Hee René Magritte, the Illusion of Reality.

Quotes.: 

Quotes. Art evokes the mystery without which the world would not exist. Everything we see hides another thing, we always want to see what is hidden by what we see. My painting is visible images which conceal nothing; they evoke mystery and, indeed, when one sees one of my pictures, one asks oneself this simple question 'What does that mean'? It does not mean anything, because mystery means nothing either, it is unknowable.

Functional Realism.: 

Functional Realism. Focused on visual information Can make use of special effect like artificial transparency to depict important features that would be hidden in photographs; Offering various and efficient rendering style rather than physical or photo realistic rendering The point that Magritte was trying to make is that an image of a thing is not the same as the thing itself, and we should be careful not to confuse the two.
