Duchamp describes his transition away from Impressionism toward a Cubist, and then post-Cubist, approach, providing commentary while standing before Nude Descending a Staircase (“I was not aware of Italian Futurism when I painted it”) and The Large Glass (“The two crackings are symmetrically arranged and there is…almost an intention there…a ready-made intention, in other words, that I respect and love.”). These concepts are paradoxically, although quite logically, articulated alongside his desire for “dryness” and mechanical precision. Viewers also gain insight into Duchamp’s thoughts on painting for an “ideal” public-a notion he clearly distinguishes from ivory-tower elitism.

It's surprising to me how affable and soft spoken he seems since I always had the impression that Duchamp would be sort of a cold and silent man, judging for his impeccably conceived conceptual work. It was a revelation for me. Thank you so much for this gem.

    I have absolute synesthesia when I look at Nude Descending a Staircase. It is truly electrifying for me. And I love him saying that he had said everything he needed to say about Cubism when he painted that. And it is ironic that this work is really the pinnacle of Futurism even though he didn't know about futurism at the time. Andy Warhol idolized him -- I don't think he would have given Mr. Warhol a second sniff -- so gauche and oversold and one note compared to Duchamp!

    Warhol was notorious for taking artists in, only to steal their concepts and work. a master manipulator and factually nothing but a thieving marketeer of some sort (which somehow is considered, or mistaken for, by some as being revolutionary). Duchamp however, left the art world for years, taking a job teaching because he felt he couldn't contribute to art in a meaningful way at that moment in his life. that is a fundamental difference in their approach to art. by analyzing and deconstructing their work and careers that becomes painfully obvious.

    @@indoor_gangster Well, then we agree for the most part. I have to say that I'm not totally unconvinced that Warhol wasn't just tweaking the noses of the hoi polloi and the art world and quite prescient -- in the future people will pay in the tens and hundreds of millions for garbage "art" like mine because they are vacuous and narcissistic and stupid and culture is dead, art is dead and "humanity" is on it's last leg. The whole crappy Warhol circus and the crappy art was all his commentary on society. "In the future everyone will be world famous for fifteen minutes". While a Campbell's soup can will live on in our hearts and minds . . . The rich society women thought they were slumming with him and he thought he was slumming with them. He saw through everything and seemed to have that sociopathic personality type that found it amusing because it didn't hurt his feelings to watch the end of our current civilization play itself off the stage . . . he truly didn't care and as we all know, he loved to watch. Duchamp's last project on the other hand, while being about "watching" was perhaps the ultimate violence and psychological intrusion on his ex-lover. Certainly as malevolent as any of Warhol's pranks (like inviting people over to overdose on heroin as entertainment for rich ladies from the Upper East Side). I think Warhol looked up to Duchamp's great work but also his *time*. Warhol was too late to be a Duchamp. Everything was overexposed and cheap and trashy in his day whereas Duchamp had such a rich cultural landscape on which to play. I think Warhol would laugh to see his soup can on coffee mugs -- that's the joke he was going for precisely. I think of him as a sociologist, comedian, social commentator and philosopher, trickster, court clown and all that is an art. Wow this is long. sorry.

    He is as precise with his words as with his art. And he knew we would watch him 70 years later, I can see it in his wry smile. We are his true audience that finally understood his art

    Due to our jade and grant, we'll never be able to truly appreciate the conceptual ideologies and the emotional sensitivity required therin of this time in art, however it's wonderful to hear such a succinct conversation from a fundamental piece responsible for so much of what we understand as our modern culture so far after the fact.

    thanks for your effort Duchamp is so all encompassing for pushing and mirroring every art movement in the 20th c. The part on the Mona Lisa readymade could have been more complete with putting the "art at the service of the mind" had it been revealed that L.H.O.O.Q. is a french pun "elle au chaud aux cul" means "she's hot in the ass" i love you marcel you always knew how to make everything so much more than most folks would even pick up on...

    i feel like we haven't had a change in painting since he made "nude descending a staircase" or in sculpture since "the fountain". In nude descending a staircase, it's like he took all the abstraction required to paint something (planes, cylinders, etc.), combined them with comic-book indications (dashed lines, outlines, etc.), used them to represent the form of an overlayed set of photos, and then treated those things not as 2D on the canvas but 3D in space made of real material and only then made a painting of *that*. Like to represent the surface of a leg you approximate it as a plane. Easy, painters do this all the time. But he says "ok, but to approximate a plane you could draw a parallelogram with an outline". So he does that. But then because his subject is a bunch of over-laid photos you get all these interactions and you approximate those overlapping, composite shapes. And then he takes the motion lines that are used in illustration along with the one that appear in the composite image and says "Well what if those were outlining planes or discs? And what if those planes and discs were themselves abstractions of real surfaces?" and then paints his own abstractions of those imaginary physical shapes! It's insane! I love this painting! And then the idea of what art is, whether is had to be intentional or can be "ready-made", whether the discussion around a piece can be the art, what the purpose of it is, etc. We literally haven't been able to get past this. In no way was Marcel Duchamp the first to do either of these things but he was really, really good at it. Only Agnes Martin has done something equally transformative since this movement, I think.

    Bad subtitle at 2:34, James Johnson Sweeney says in French about the nude, and Duchamp repeats: "succès de scandale" (success through scandal) (not "c'est de scandal" which does not mean anything).
