The Writings Of Marcel Duchamp

The writings of Marcel Duchamp fashion some of the most joyous and ingenious couplings and uncouplings in modern art. This collection brings together two essential interviews and two statements about his art that underscore the serious side of Duchamp. But most of the book is made up of his experimental writings, which he called "Texticles". Wacky, perverse, deliberately frustrating, these entertaining notes are basic for understanding one of the 20th century's most provocative artists, a figure whose influence on the contemporary scene has never been stronger.
