  The Son ofMan is a 1964 painting by the Belgian surrealist painter René Magritte. Magritte painted it as a self-portrait. Everything we see hides another thing, we always want to see what is hidden by what we see. There is an interest in that which is hidden and which the visible does not show us. This interest can take the form of a quite intense feeling, a sort of conflict, one might say, between the visible that is hidden and the visible that is present.

  André Breton Free Union Mywife with the hair of a wood fire With the thoughts of heat lightning With the waist of an hourglass With the waist of an otter in the teeth of a tiger My wife with her rosette mouth and a bouquet of stars of the last magnitude With the teeth of tracks of white mice on the white earth With the tongue of rubbed amber and glass My wife with the tongue of a stabbed host With the tongue of a doll that opens and closes its eyes With the tongue of an unbelievable stone My wife with her eyelashes in the strokes of a child's writing With eyebrows from the edge of a swallow's nest …………………………………………………… 1931  Federico García Lorca Sleepless City Out in the sky, no one sleeps. No one, no one. No one sleeps. The creatures of the moon sniff and prowl about their cabins. The living iguanas will come and bite the men who do not dream, and the brokenhearted fugitive will meet on street corners an unbelievable alligator resting beneath the tender protest of the stars. Out in the sky, no one sleeps. No one, no one. No one sleeps. In a graveyard far off there is a corpse who has moaned for three years because of an arid landscape in his knee; and that boy they buried this morning cried so much it was necessary to call out the dogs to keep him quiet.
