The exhibit's title is a play on a 1929 painting of the same name by Belgian surrealist artist René Magritte. Underlining the image of a pipe with the phrase "Ceci n'est pas une pipe" (or "This is not a pipe"), the painting implores viewers to question their interpretations of reality by pointing out that the painting is not a pipe, but rather an image of a pipe. The exhibit itself will echo that message, asking attendees to see what's displayed not just as pipes, but also works of art, especially amid changing attitudes toward marijuana.
