The Menanced Assassin by Rene Magritte
In contrast to Salvador Dali, Rene Magritte has been called the "Invisible Man" amongst the surrealists. George Melly in the script for a BBC film on Magritte wrote, "He is a secret agent; his objective is to bring into disrepute the whole apparatus of bourgeoisie reality". "Like all saboteurs, he avoids detection by dressing and behaving like everybody else".
"Thanks to his anonymity, his works have had gradual but overwhelming impact - like a glacial flow".
