Why is René Magritte‘s art so mysterious? A new, intriguing puzzle to solve for our little Art heroes! Belgian artist Magritte’s painting Gloconde has repeated images of different men in bowler hats, in a pattern almost like wallpaper – but which one is Magritte? Mati and Dada head to Belgium where the artist tells them why he chooses to paint in surreal style – puzzling or not making sense, like his painting showing a night time house and a day-time sky.

Seven-year old Mati is a cheerful girl with a wild imagination and a zesty passion for art. Along with her eccentric sidekick Dada, she’s magically transported into the lives of the greatest artists in history.

Together, these two friends go on exciting adventures with the likes of Leonardo da Vinci, Vincent Van Gogh, Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dali. Hand in hand, they travel throughout time and art, solving mysteries and sometimes getting into trouble ~ all the while learning from the Masters themselves.

This wonderful animated series is a fun and imaginative introduction to art for budding artists everywhere!
