Marcel Duchamp and Francois Villon: Readymades Read and Made Part 3 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780648727644)

Marcel Duchamp's older artist brothers Jacques Villon and Raymond Duchamp Villon chose to rename themselves after the cheeky mediaeval poet Francois Villon. They were key in the formation of Marcel's ideas, both in his agreement with them and reaction to their actions. Despite this there are to date no studies of Francois Villon's work and its relation to Marcel Duchamp. This in depth study reveals surprising correlations both in attitude and method. It discusses several readymades and explains Duchamp's use of French linguistic nuance clearly. Above all with his humor in mind.
