RENE MAGRITTE Moderna Museet, 1967

Original exhibition poster.

This rare and striking poster was created for the 1967 exhibition of René Magritte at the Moderna Museet in Sweden, one of the most important presentations of the artist’s work in Scandinavia.

The image reproduces Le Modèle Rouge (1934), one of Magritte’s most enigmatic and unsettling compositions. The surreal transformation of shoes into human feet exemplifies his ability to challenge perception and blur the boundary between the familiar and the uncanny. Through this simple yet disturbing juxtaposition, Magritte invites viewers to question reality, identity, and the nature of representation.

The minimalist layout, with bold typography framing the central image, reflects the refined graphic sensibility of mid-century exhibition design, allowing the power of Magritte’s imagery to take center stage.

As an authentic piece from the pre-digital poster era, this poster carries both historical and artistic significance, marking an important moment in the international recognition of Magritte’s work.

A rare and highly collectible example of surrealist exhibition material, appealing to collectors of Magritte and key 20th-century movements.
