A painter, sculptor, writer, and chess player, Duchamp changed the very definition of art with his “readymades”—everyday objects such as a bicycle wheel or bottle rack that he titled, signed, and presented as art. He provoked critics and the public with works such as the Cubist-Futurist painting Nude Descending a Staircase, No. 2 (1912) and Fountain (1917), a readymade composed of a men’s urinal signed “R. Mutt.” Prizing the intellectual over the aesthetic, Duchamp inspired later movements like Minimalism, Conceptualism, and Pop Art. Delightful and witty, Duchamp-isms offers rich insights into the mind of a true icon of modern art.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Princeton University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51491822600501,"sku":"9780691274485","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0739\/4289\/2853\/files\/9780691274485_b3fb0.jpg?v=1763055462","url":"https:\/\/researchdevstore.myshopify.com\/products\/9780691274485","provider":"Research \u0026 Development Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
