About this title:

Synopsis: A one-time Fauvist, Cubist, Dadaist, and Surrealist, but an eternal chess player, Marcel Duchamp remains the avant-garde figure beyond all avant-garde figures of the past century. Provocative and brilliant, he radically challenged and changed accepted notions of art and its manufacture, and of the relationship between art and life. Marcel Duchamp, published on the occasion of an exhibition at the Jean Tinguely Museum in Basel under the curatorship of Harald Szeeman, endeavors to trace the different periods of Duchamp's oeuvre by means of a selection of his work focused mainly on those aspects that influenced Tinguely's own oeuvre. Additionally, the publication contains statements by Duchamp and essays by renowned Duchamp scholars on such topics as the emergence and development of the ready-made concept and its impact on the art of the 1960s.

About the Author: One of the most controversial and influential artists of the 20th century, Marcel Duchamp, a.k.a. Rrose Sélavy and R. Mutt, was born in 1887 in Blainville, France. The brother of artists Raymond Duchamp-Villon and Jacques Villon, Duchamp himself began to paint in 1908. After producing several canvases in the current mode of Fauvism, he turned toward experimentation and the avant garde, producing one of his most famous works, the cubist "Nude Descending a Staircase, No. 2" (1912), which caused a furor in New York at the 1913 Armory Show. He painted very little after 1915, with the notable exception of his most challenging work, "Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, Even" (1915-1923). Perhaps his most important legacy was the ready-made, a radical rethinking of the artwork initiated by Duchamp with his "Fountain" (1917), which consisted of a mass-produced ceramic urinal, turned upside down, signed "R. Mutt," and exhibited in a gallery setting. After his brief creative period, Duchamp virtually retired from the art world and spent the remainder of his life playing chess. He died in Paris in 1968.

Book Description 231 S. mit sehr zahlreichen farbigen und sw. Abb., teilw. ganzseitig Zustand: neuwertig. - English Edition. Literaturverz. S. 227 - 229. Die große Werkmonografie. Kaum ein Künstler hat die Grenzen der Kunst so radikal erweitert wie Marcel Duchamp. Seine provokativen Aktionen wurden zu legendären Ereignissen: Er erklärte eine Schneeschaufel oder einen Flaschenständer zu Kunstwerken und malte der Mona Lisa einen Schnurrbart. Ungeheuren Skandal erregte Duchamp mit seinem 1913 in New York ausgestellten "Akt, die Treppe herabsteigend", zu einem weiteren wäre es beinahe gekommen, als er 1917 auf einer New Yorker Künstlerausstellung ein signiertes Urinal einreichte. Dieser große Bildband, der eine von Harald Szeemann kuratierte Ausstellung im Museum Jean Tinguely Basel begleitete, verfolgt anhand ausgewählter Arbeiten die verschiedenen Perioden von Duchamps Werk. Neben Äußerungen von Duchamp selbst enthält er Essays renommierter Autoren, die etwa die Entstehung und Wandlung des Readymade- Konzeptes sowie seine Wirkungsgeschichte in der Kunst der 1960er Jahre beleuchten. Internationale Ausgabe. Text englisch. 230 Bilder, davon 41 farbig. - ISBN: 3775711953 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 1514 4° (28,5x24,5cm), Ln. im OSchutzU. Seller Inventory # 5076
