René Magritte's work is very popular, to be sure. However, the theorists of painting sometimes display a certain disdain towards him. Bad painting, we dare say. Everyone can judge as they see fit... but have these critics grasped the intention attached to this work? Because a work of thought crosses it. I would go so far as to say that Magritte's work is this itself: the exercise of thought in images. In this book, I propose an investigation. Based on the words and writings of the painter, I try to find this thought in images. In themselves the paintings do not give access to them: it would be nice to interpret them, we would not yet discover their necessity. So I put them in relation to philosophical concepts. I show, from seven studies, that the images created by Magritte are comparable to arguments and that they bear witness, within the work, to a resemblance to the reflection of philosophers such as Plato, Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, Wittgenstein or Sartre, without counting Michel Foucault

L'œuvre de René Magritte est très populaire, c'est sûr. Pourtant, les théoriciens de la peinture affichent parfois à son égard un certain dédain. Mauvaise peinture, ose-t-on dire. Chacun en juge comme il l'entend... mais ces critiques ont-ils saisi l'intention attachée à cette œuvre? Car un travail de la pensée la traverse. J'irais jusqu'à dire que l'œuvre de Magritte est cela même : l'exercice d'une pensée en images. Dans ce livre, je propose une enquête. Prenant appui sur les dits et écrits du peintre, je tente de retrouver cette pensée en images. En eux-mêmes les tableaux n'y donnent pas accès : on aurait beau les interpréter, on ne découvrirait pas encore leur nécessité. Alors je les mets en rapport avec des concepts philosophiques. Je montre, à partir de sept études, que les images créées par Magritte sont comparables à des arguments et qu'elles témoignent, au sein de l'œuvre, d'une ressemblance avec la réflexion de philosophes tels que Platon, Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, Wittgenstein ou Sartre, sans compter Michel Foucault
