Imens i livet hos Giorgio de Chirico
Hele livet1925
Marriage to the ballerina Raissa Gurievich; Paris
In 1925 de Chirico meets and marries the Russian ballerina Raissa Gurievich; together they move to Paris.
1926
The break with the Surrealists
De Chirico's relationship with the Surrealists grows increasingly contentious as they publicly disparage his new work; by 1926 he has come to regard them as “cretinous and hostile.” They soon part ways in acrimony.
1928
A first exhibition in New York, then in London
In 1928 de Chirico holds his first exhibition in New York City and, shortly afterwards, in London.
1929
The novel “Hebdomeros” appears
In 1929 (by other accounts, in 1925) de Chirico's novel “Hebdomeros, the Metaphysician” appears; around then he also writes essays on art and other subjects. The poet John Ashbery has called the book probably the finest major work of Surrealist fiction.
1929
Stage designs for Sergei Diaghilev
In 1929 de Chirico makes stage designs for Sergei Diaghilev.
1929–1930
Illustrations for Apollinaire's “Calligrammes”
In 1929–1930 de Chirico creates illustrations for Guillaume Apollinaire's “Calligrammes” — the poet who was among the first to praise his work and who helped introduce it to the later Surrealists.
