Title Marcel Duchamp
Author Description Directed by Jean-Marie Drot
Uri
Web Author Description
webLongDescription Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968) is considered by many the godfather of Dada and Surrealism. He is hailed as the inventor of the 'readymade' artwork which was to become a key component of much modern art from Surrealism to Pop Art. This film records an in-depth interview with Duchamp which took place five years before his death, at the time of his first ever one-man show (at the Pasadena Art Museum). It records for posterity Duchamp talking about his life, his ideas on art, why he chose to continue living in America after fleeing France in 1915, and why he virtually abandoned his work as an artist in 1923. An engaging dialogue takes place between Duchamp and film-maker Jean-Marie Drot as they go around the Pasadena show, with the artist commenting on the exhibits and using them to explain the various stages of the development of his work. This is punctuated by the games of chess, which were for Duchamp a passion and a metaphor for the mental discipline he applied to his art. In this film we gain a rare glimpse of him talking with humour and insight about his ideas, and living up to the myth of the artist-philosopher that has grown up around him.
