Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968), was an international celebrity whose influence was permanent, innovative, conceptual-factors that link the man's mystery and notoriety, banality and provocation. From Cézanne and post-Impressionist paintings to the scandal of "Nude Descending a Staircase," which brought him unimaginable celebrity in America, Duchamp quickly rejected the "smell of turpentine" to go on to new works such as the "ready-made," commonplace objects elevated to status of works of art by the artist. Duchamp himself explained why and how he came to "ready-made" during a delightful 1968 interview with Philippe Collin, director of this film. The film highlights his revolutionary spirit and his radical approach, which opened up a new path for art in the 20th century, a path many artists continue to follow today.
