Loose Parts by Dave Blazek for October 17, 2024

That will reduce its value!

Ceci n’est pas un Orange Pippin.

I join art lovers in saying that snot funny.

Love it! … and, ‘What does it mean?’ it does not mean anything because mystery means nothing, it is unknowable.” René François Ghislain Magritte (1898-1967)

We still don’t know what his face looks like.

Does this mean that they’re not going to put it back?

Throwing myself at the feet of the “high-brow humor” court… I immediately “got it” when I saw my Google search results (I’d gone to college with the intentions of being an art teacher). Asking for mercy, as I was still sipping my first cup of coffee at 6:30 am… …mea culpa!!!

Bravo!!!

I thought it was supposed to be the apple of his eye?

Well, my little dumpling, he went and got sauced and is now pie eyed.

He should have waited until after halloween

Love the detail of the bowler hat!

He was suffering from the green apple quick step.

For those readers such as myself who drew a blank from this, per Wikipedia, René Magritte was a Belgian surrealist artist known for his depictions of familiar objects in unfamiliar, unexpected contexts such as an apple covering a face. His imagery has influenced pop art, minimalist art, and conceptual art. You’re welcome.

Thus the expression, ‘the apple of one’s nose.’

‘And I’ll return this to Granny Smith’

Next they’ll treat the burns Dali got from that melted clock.

All this time I thought an apple a day kept the doctor away.

afterward he’ll just magritte his teeth and bear the pain…

Not gonna’ lie… I had to Google to understand. Good one!
