Topic: Readymade



  
 Found art - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Marcel Duchamp coined the term readymade in 1915 to describe his found art.
Found art derives significance from the context into which it is placed, thus blurring the traditional distinction of what is art, and what is not art, and challenges the nature of art.
His Fountain, a urinal which he signed with the pseudonym "R. Mutt", shocked the art world in 1917.

 Tate Glossary Readymade
Readymade is the term used by the French artist Marcel Duchamp to describe works of art he made from manufactured objects.
Duchamp was an influential figure in Dada and Surrealism, an important influence on Pop art, environments, assemblage, installation art, Conceptual art and much art of the 1990s such as YBA.
Duchamp's readymades also asserted the principle that what is art is defined by the artist.

 Readymade
The former is a Readymade, the latter, a sculpture.
The term 'Readymade' is used exclusively for those works by Duchamp to which he gave that prefix, whereas there are perhaps other subsequent works by other artists which could be placed in the category he created, so clearly a Readymade, by definition must be made by Duchamp.
I have just described a formal reduction of a Readymade which although it may owe little to previous art, bears directly on the dominant ideology of the time in which Duchamp was working.

 The Unfindable Readymade
This principle according to which "a readymade is not a work of art for Duchamp, but the subject matter of some of his works" is the mere reason why the objects were not exhibited at this time.
My first conclusion is that, in the case of Marcel Duchamp, the readymade is never a work of art; it is only the subject matter of a work of art.
In other words, since readymade is art, the concept of art is completely revolutionized.

 [No title]
This significance is in the readymade itself, but also in the influence that it has had, and will continue to have, on artists and their works.
As evidenced by the work of Duchamp, Johns, and Warhol, the readymade has changed and at the same time influenced the concept of "what is art?" Without industrialization and mass production, the readymade would not have had a model to spring from.
Duchamp even went so far as to say, "since the tubes of paint used by an artist are manufactured and readymade products, we must conclude that all paintings in the world are assisted readymades." Though not his first attempt at a readymade, it was Duchamp's Fountain that propelled the readymade into artistic fame.

 SHOCKING: The Fountain (II)
A "Readymade" is an everyday object selected and designated as art.
Marcel Duchamp, born July 28, 1887, French painter and theorist, a major proponent of Dada, and one of the most influential figures of avant-garde 20th-century art.
Duchamp says that he was using Fountain to show that it is false that only works of art have aesthetic value.

 L.H.O.O.Q., by Marcel Duchamp
The most well known act of degrading a famous work of art is probably Marcel Duchamp's L.H.O.O.Q., a cheap postcard-sized reproduction of the Mona Lisa upon which in 1919 the artist drew a mustache and a thin goatee beard.
On one hand L.H.O.O.Q. must be understood as one of Duchamp's "readymade" works of art—works that he didn't make, but which.

Readymade work within consistent dynamics and tempi; after 10 years, they know what they do well, and are almost too comfortable resting on their strengths.
Readymade sing fuzzy-wuzzy-- if less flagellant-- high school idylls ("Venetian light stripes the room/ Faded by highball perfume"), which are thankfully offset by the often breathtaking instrumentals.

 Unhappy Readymade
At the time of the marriage of his sister, Suzanne, to Jean Crotti, the artist sent instructions to the couple in Paris to suspend a geometry book by strings on their balcony.
Duchamp's days of concentrated geometric scholarship were largely over by the time he left France in 1915 and were certainly so by 1919.
One of Duchamp's last specific comments on geometry was his Unhappy Readymade of 1919.
