Surrealist Magritte leads blockbuster summer art shows

Artworks by Belgian surrealist Rene Magritte will be on show at the Art Gallery of NSW this summer. (HANDOUT/THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART, NEW YORK AND ART GALLERY OF NEW SOUTH WALESTHE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART, NEW YORK AND ART GALLERY OF NEW SOUTH WALES)

Oversized apples, men in bowler hats, and pipes (that definitely are not pipes) are some of René Magritte's iconic surrealist images.

The first retrospective ever dedicated to the artist in Australia will open at the Art Gallery of NSW in October, featuring more than 100 works as part of a program of blockbuster summer shows.
