31 de ago. de 2020 · El espejo falso es una obra dual: por un lado, Magritte representa un enorme ojo sin pestañas (54x81cm); por otro, actúa de espejo, reflejando las nubes blancas y el cielo azul. De esta forma, se nos presenta una ventana al mundo real.
By replacing the eyes iris with a blue, cloud-filled sky in False Mirror, Magritte challenges us to question what we see and what we think we know. Is the sky a reflection of what the eye is seeing? Is the eye in fact an opening into another reality?
The False Mirror (1928) is a surrealist oil painting by René Magritte that depicts a human eye framing a cloudy, blue sky. [1][2][3] In the depiction of the eye in the painting, the clouds take the place normally occupied by the iris. [4][5][6] The painting's original French title is Le faux miroir. [7]
In Magritte’s painting, The False Mirror, a huge human eye completely covers the canvas. The image jolts the viewer by removing the eye from its usual context, presenting it without the face to which it belongs. It further disrupts expectation by placing a circular sky inside the otherwise ordinary oculus.
Curator, Anne Umland: The False Mirror presents us with this enormous lash-less eye. Its iris is very implausibly filled with this luminous, cloud-swept blue sky. And then right at dead center is this matte black opaque disc that doubles as its pupil.
‘The false mirror’ was created in 1928 by Rene Magritte in Surrealism style. Find more prominent pieces of allegorical painting at Wikiart.org – best visual art database.
