Le Plagiat (René Magritte, 1940) painted by Frederik Cnockaert, 1998 (Jan Theuninck collection)

Image
The 1940 Magritte original measures 54 by 65 cm and is cataloged in his oeuvre catalog. This hand-painted copy measures 75 cm by 100 cm (without frame) is much larger than the original, in order to prevent later fraud, painted in 1998   https://www.christies.com/lotfinder/Lot/rene-magritte-1893-1983-le-plagiat-plagiary-5650365-details.aspx The story in this work is one of hope. Not a world full of darkness and horror, but a hopeful ray of light, a beautiful landscape in a flower still life. The flowers here act as a window into a landscape of grass, trees and clouds. The eggs in a nest represent the outside world invading nature.  As is often the case in René Magritte's artworks, there are hidden messages that stimulate our imagination ....

Torture : holes in my lover drape / energy weapon (photo Jan Theuninck, 2023)

Image
an example of the damage caused by energy weapons in Belgium (torture)   How it works.... <<Severe personality problems find *camouflage.* No one thinks "I'm a sadist" or "I'm a malignant narcissist." They find a belief system/social group that validates their most hateful, destructive impulses & construes them as virtues. The most toxic and hateful people in the world are 100% convinced they fight for what is true and right. For colleagues looking for more theoretical explanation, the psychological processes are splitting, projection & project the badness onto some designated other. And this other person, via the defense of projection, is now seen as the repository of all that is bad and evil and necessary to destroy. That's the projection. The person now feels fully justified in unleashing their viciousness and hate on the other person, who is now seen (via projection) as someone monstrous who must be destroyed. If the person who is pr...
