Marcel Duchamp more books like this

by Dawn Ades, David Hopkins, Neil Cox

Genius, anti-artist, charlatan, guru, imposter? Since 1914 Marcel Duchamp has been called all these.

The Two Art Histories: The Museum and the University more books like this

by Professor Charles W Haxthausen (Editor), Dawn Ades, Andreas Beyer

Investigating Sex: Surrealist Research, 1928-1932 more books like this

by Jose Pierre, Malcolm Imrie (Translator), Dawn Ades (Foreword by)

The Surrealists' approach to sexuality was both original and important. Their belief in eroticism and love was, while widespread today, rare in the 1920s. As in every department pertaining to the innner life of man, the Surrealists threw a spotlight into the darker corners and thereby allowed us all access. This book is an historical record of ...
