It is no coincidence that René Magritte’s first European retrospective exhibition in 1967 took place at Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen.
Spearheaded by curator Renilde Hammacher-van den Brande (1913-2014), the museum had just begun to build an impressive collection of Surrealist works, which would later become one of the cornerstones of the collection. This world-class collection includes works by René Magritte, Salvador Dalí, Yves Tanguy and Paul Delvaux and is constantly being expanded.
