With his Boite-en-valise, or Museum in a Box, Duchamp embarked on
one of his more ambitious projects: a portable museum of miniature
replicas and facsimiles created with the help of elaborate
reproduction techniques as pochoir (a type of hand stencilling) and
comprising his most important works. Conceived in the mid-1930s and
consisting of eighty-one items, it was first released in 1941 and
continued to be assembled in various editions until after his
death, with the final seven different series totalling about 300
items. This publication is a facsimile of the series D, 1961
edition. Created with the full approval of the Duchamp Estate, it
contains a reproduction of The Large Glass on Plexiglas, colour
reproductions of his pictures, reproductions of his drawings and a
selection of his humorous texts, a glass vial of Parisian air, a
urinal, a small sugar dispenser, 'canned chance' and other
miscellanea, all housed in a green cardboard box.
