In 1910, de Chirico moved to Paris where he made contact with Picasso and befriended Guillaume Apollinaire. In Paris he began to produce highly troubling dreamlike pictures of deserted cities, eg. *The Great Tower*, *The Soothsayer's Recompense*, *Mystery and Melancholy of a Street*, etc.; pictures with fantastic combinations of images that carried a charge of mystery, eg. *Love Song*, *Portrait prémonitoire de Guillaume Apollinaire*, *The Uncertainty of the Poet*, et al. The same haunting shapes tend to appear again and again in poetic combinations.\r\n\r\nIn 1917 in the Ferrara military hospital, de Chirico met a compatriot, also a painter, Carlo Carrà (1881-1966), and together they founded Metaphysical painting. De Chirico's Metaphysical paintings were hugely influential on Surrealist artists, who recognized in them the eloquent expression of the unconscious and nonsensical to which they themselves aspired. In 1918 de Chirico and Carrà contributed to the periodical Valori Plastici which gave a literary aspect to Metaphysical painting. By the 1930s de Chirico had moved to a more conventional form of expression. His great interest in archeology and history took the form of Neo-Baroque paintings full of horses, still-lifes, and portraits. The Surrealists, in particular, condemned his later work."},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"[Giorgio de Chirico](http://www.abcgallery.com/C/chirico/chirico.html) werd geboren in Griekenland als zoon van een Italiaanse spoorwegingenieur. Hij studeerde in Athene, Firenze en München, waar hij beïnvloed werd door de filosofie van Nietzsche en de symbolistische kunst van Arnold Böcklin. In 1910 verhuisde De Chirico naar Parijs, waar hij Picasso leerde kennen en bevriend raakte met Guillaume Apollinaire. In Parijs begon hij bijzonder verontrustende, droomachtige beelden van verlaten steden te maken, zoals *The Great Tower*, *The Soothsayer's Recompense*, *Mystery and Melancholy of a Street*, enzovoort. Maar ook schilderijen met fantastische combinaties van beelden met een mysterieuze lading, zoals *Love Song*, *Portrait prémonitoire de Guillaume Apollinaire*, *The Uncertainty of the Poet*. Dezelfde beklijvende vormen verschijnen ook almaar opnieuw in poëtische combinaties.\r\n\r\nIn 1917 ontmoette De Chirico een gelijkgestemde ziel en eveneens schilder in militaire hospitaal van Ferrara: Carlo Carrà (1881-1966). Samen riepen zij de Metafysische schilderkunst in het leven. De Metafysische schilderijen van De Chirico hadden een immense invloed op de surrealisten, die in hem de welbespraakte expressie van het onbewuste en het absurde zagen, waarnaar zij zelf streefden. In 1918 maakten De Chirico en Carrà bijdragen voor het tijdschrift Valori Plastici, dat een literair aspect gaf aan de Metafysische schilderkunst.\r\nTegen de jaren 1930 ging De Chirico over naar een meer conventionele uitdrukkingsvorm. Zijn grote interesse voor archeologie en geschiedenis uitte zich in neo-barokke schilderijen vol paarden, stillevens en portretten. Vooral de surrealisten keurden zijn latere werk af.
