Description and Table of Contents
Description
Marcel Duchamp is considered one of the most important artists in 20th century art: provocatively revealing the relationship between art and life and the prerequisites for its existence. He radically changed the notion of the work of art and its manufacturer and his influence extends to the present day. This book endeavours to trace the different periods of Duchamp's oeuvre and focuses on aspects of the mechanical, movement, the optical, play and humour. The publication contains statements by Duchamp himself as well as essays by renowned authors on such concepts as the emergence and development of the ready-made concept and its impact on the art of the 1960s.
