Exploding Boundaries: an Interview with Duchamp (french Literature and Art Interview Series)
Literature爆破边界：杜尚访谈录（法兰西文艺访谈录系列）
(france) Marcel Duchamp Et Al.
Marcel Duchamp talks about his life, his works, the time he spent. His life itself was a "ready-made" and the time he spent in it has been called his most beautiful work. Calm irony, abandoning aesthetics, interest and pure visual pleasure, the legitimacy of doing nothing, keen on chance and word games, keen on "the poetry of words"... The Duchamp who constantly escapes Duchamp, the intellectual Duchamp, is self-contradictory, "reluctant to take any definition as the end point". For Duchamp, aesthetics is absurd, and anti-aesthetics is also absurd.
