| | Marcel Duchamp - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Duchamp was one of the first artists to use found objects, readymades, as the basis for his artworks. | | | Marcel Duchamp (July 28, 1887 – October 2, 1968) was a French/American artist whose work and ideas had considerable influence on the development of post-World War II Western art, and his advice to modern art collectors helped shape the tastes of the Western art world. | | | Marcel Duchamp took aim at conventional notions of "high art," "culture" and commodities by presenting mass-produced objects such as a bottle rack or a snow shovel as sculpture. |

| | Duchamp is noted for his cubist-futurist painting Nude Descending a Staircase, depicting continuous action with a series of overlapping figures; it was the cause of great controversy when exhibited in 1913 at the New York Armory Show. | | | Duchamp invented ready-mades—commonplace objects—e.g., the urinal entitled Fountain, which he exhibited as works of art. | | | Money is no object: by deciding early on that he would not depend for a living on sales of his work, Marcel Duchamp took a crucial step toward freeing his art from material constraints and the vicissitudes of... |

| | Duchamp even acquired a female identity at one point, the blithe and somewhat scandalous Rrose Selavy, who signed a number of their joint works; it was as though, in his quest for complete freedom, Duchamp did not feel obliged to limit himself to the confines of a single sex. | | | Duchamp said that he wanted to "put painting once again at the service of the mind." Since the time of Courbet, he felt, art had been exclusively "retinal," in that its appeal was primarily to the eye. | | | Duchamp adored puns and perpetrated a lot of them, but his were never as heavy-footed as that. |

| | For Duchamp, what an artist said was art was art, and he exhibited such objects as a urinal, a mounted bicycle wheel, and a reproduction of the Mona Lisa with a mustache. | | | This attack on the artistic object was infuriating the many of his fellow artists as well as almost everyone in the audience of the first exhibitions where these wotrks were presented; they were crucial in impoprtance both to the DADA movement and to such neo-DADAists as Jasper Johns and many of the POP artists. | | | This is a reprint of the 1973 exhibition catalogue for a show organized by the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art, New York (see Freitag #2449). |

| | Duchamp's readymades (as in readymade clothes), we have been told again and again, were ordinary mass-produced, machine-made objects, arbitrarily chosen by Duchamp with no consideration "for good or bad taste," and designated as "art works" so as to debunk the very concept of individual art making. | | | Duchamp's Ready-Mades are not works of art but manifestations. | | | Indeed, Duchamp's own "negation" was never of art as such but only of what he called retinal art, which he rejected in favor of what a post-World War II generation would call conceptualism. |
