Marcel Duchamp's stature in the history of art has grown steadily
since the 1950s, as several artistic movements have embraced him as
their founding father. But although his influence is comparable
only to Picasso's, Duchamp continues to be relatively unknown
outside his narrow circle of followers. This book seeks to explain
his oeuvre, which has been shrouded with mystery.
Duchamp's two great preoccupations were the nature of scientific
truth and a feeling for love with its natural limit, death. His
works all speak of eroticism in a way that pushes the socially
acceptable to its outer limits. Juan Antonio Ramirez addresses such
questions as the meaning of the artist's ground-breaking
ready-mades and his famous installation "Etant donnes"; his
passionate essay reproduces all of Duchamp's important works, in
addition to numerous previously unpublished visual sources.
"Duchamp: Love and Death, even" is a seminal monograph for
understanding this crucial figure of modern art.
