“And then there is that one-man art movement, Marcel Duchamp- for me a truly modern movement because it implies that each artist can do what he thinks he ought to- a movement for each person and open for everybody. ... Marcel Duchamp was a French artist who claimed to be ‘more interested in the ideas than in the final product’ writes Roberta Smith (256). ... With a Readymade, Duchamp asked the viewer to think about what defined the uniqueness of the artwork among the multiplicity of all other objects. ...
Duchamp became one of the 20th centuries most influential and controversial artists. ...
