This is not a pipe - René Magritte Cool Art Socks
"Ceci n'est pas une pipe" has gained a life of its own.
But before entering pop culture, it had a purpose: to challenge the viewer to explore the nature of representation.
Magritte's meticulous rendering of the pipe, combined with the written statement that it is not, in fact, a pipe, highlights the gap between language and visual perception – is a picture of something that something, or a mere representation?
In either case ,what are the limits of representation?
