Analyse assez complète de l'oeuvre de Marcel Duchamp jusqu'aux années 50 par Robert Lebel. Les textes de H. P. Roché et André Breton sont très agréable et offre une perspective différente sur l'oeuvre de l'artiste. Les illustrations (pour la plupart en noir et blanc) sont très pratiques et presque absolument exhaustive de la production de Duchamp.

"The only recourse left to the innovator was the deliberate exploitation of the absurd while appearing completely serious"

[Erin · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is a really interesting collection of essays relevant to Duchamp's artistic career. My rating would be much higher if the 50+ pages of reproductions of his work were in color as they were in the original French edition.

An amazing reproduction of the original book.
