MarcelDuchamp
Welcome to MarcelDuchamp! http://www.youtube.com/user/arwen987#p/search/3/839lrYqSo7s This is a tribute site to Marcel Duchamp (28 July 1887 – 2 October 1968) the great Dada artist and pioneer of conceptual based art practices. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Things I have said about chess: “The chess pieces are the block alphabet which shapes thoughts; and these thoughts, although making a visual design on the chess-board, express their beauty abstractly, like a poem.” "I am still a victim of chess. It has all the beauty of art -- and much more. It cannot be commercialized. Chess is much purer than art in its social position." "I have come to the conclusion that while all artists are not chess players, all chess players are artists.” "Chess can be described as the movement of pieces eating one another."
