    Brings together ‘life on street’


    and life in studio
    Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968)
    The Ready-made

    Bicycle Wheel 1913


    (1964 replica)
    Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968)
    The Ready-made
    … a lovely form has been
    revealed, freed from its
    functional purpose,
    therefore a man clearly has
    made an aesthetic
    contribution. Mr Mutt has
    taken an ordinary object,
    placed it so its useful
    significance disappears,
    and thus has created a new
    approach to the subject.
    Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968)
    The Ready-made
    … Whether Mr Mutt with his
    own hands made the
    fountain or not has no
    importance. He CHOSE it.
    He took an ordinary article
    of life, placed it so that its
    useful significance
    disappeared under the new
    title and point of view -
    created a new thought for
    that object.
    Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968)
    The Ready-made

    a manmade object may appear


    ‘a very trivial thing and
    easily understood’… But ‘it is,
    in reality, a very queer thing,
    abounding in metaphysical
    subtleties and theological
    niceties’

    Karl Marx (Das Kapital 1867-94)

    Francis Picabia (1879-1953)

    Art is everywhere…
    except with the dealers
    of Art, in the temples of
    Art, like God is
    everywhere, except in
    the churches.

    The Uncanny

    Heimlich = Homely

    Unheimlich = Unhomely

    The uncanny is not to be found in


    the exotic, but in the everyday
    The Everyday
    Walter Benjamin (1892-1940)

    The revolutionary strength of Dadaism lay in testing art for its


    authenticity. You made still-lifes out of tickets, spools of cotton,
    cigarette stubs, and mixed them together with pictorial
    elements. You put a frame round the whole thing. And in this
    way you said to the public: look, your picture frame destroys
    time; the smallest authentic fragment of everyday life
    says more than painting. Just as a murder’s bloody
    fingerprint on a page says more than the words printed on it.
    (1934)
