Answer
René Magritte's art includes familiar objects, but he places them in unfamiliar contexts. For example, in one painting, he depicts a pipe with the caption "This is not a pipe." This painting is meant to challenge the viewer's perception of reality. Magritte believed that reality is not as simple as it appears, and that our eyes can deceive us.
