Mastigo o amor com os seus sucos doces.
Sem ele dar por isso, ainda mole, colo-me ao seu corpo.
E, assim, deixo-me endurecer.
Irremovível...
The King Baudouin Foundation has recently come into possession of sketches of René Magritte and letters that Marcel Mariën wrote to Jacqueline Nonkels. As a friend of René and Georgette Magritte, Jacqueline Nonkels has collected a number of documents about surrealism, including sketches, photographs and correspondence. These documents show collectively the bonds of friendship between different Brussels surrealists. Without being integrated into the group, and without trying to play any role in it, Jacqueline saw all of its members, since many meetings took place at the Magritte’s home, and she often accompanied the Magrittes when they went out.

It was at Magritte’s house, where he sometimes stayed, that Mariën was to meet up again with Jacqueline Nonkels. They wrote to each other poste restante in order to maintain a serious note of secrecy for the letters. These letters are important because of the collages that accompany them. They are among the first of Marcel Mariën’s collages, containing the seeds and ingredients of the themes to be used in his later works.
As a tribute to Jacqueline Nonkels and to the Brussels surrealists, the Cultural Heritage Fund of the King Baudouin Foundation is devoting its summer exhibition to the Brussels surrealists. The exhibition will be held in the Borghendael Pavillion of the Bellevue Museum from 25th June to 14th September 2008. Paintings, drawings, collages, letters, poems, books and photographs will bear witness to the omnipresent creativity of the surrealists in their daily lives.

You chew me up
And spit me out
Enjoy the taste
I leave in your mouth
You look at me
I look at you
Neither of us
Know what to do
There may not
Be another way to your heart
So I guess I better find a new way in
I shiver when I hear your name
Think about you but it's not the same
I won't be satisfied 'til I'm under your skin
Immobilized by the thought of you
Paralyzed by the sight of you
Hypnotized by the words yous say
Not true but I believe 'em anyway
So come to bed it's getting late
There's no more time for us to waste
Remember how my body tastes
You feel you heart begin to race
