Meet Nelson Leirner, a Brazilian visual artist and professor who shook the art world with his provocative works.

Born into an artistic family, Leirner's father was the director of the Museum of Modern Art in São Paulo.

Leirner's conceptual approach often incorporated found objects and everyday items, using irony and humor to comment on consumer culture.

One of his most famous works, 'The Pig,' was a stuffed pig in a wooden crate with a ham attached to its neck, sent to the 4th Modern Art Salon in Brasília.

During the Military Dictatorship, Leirner created large allegories of the contemporary political situation, criticizing the regime through his works.
