Dear ArtConversation Community,

Here is a "new-to-me" web site for Marcel Duchamp.
http://www.understandingduchamp.com/
Site is very well done - shows work along a timeline. By Andrew Stafford.
Has some nice interactive features.

John Phelan posted this is Art News:

"According to Alan Riding writing in today's New York Times, a French performance artist named Pierre Pinoncelli took a small hammer to Marcel Duchamp's "Fountain" the factory made urinal which is considered the cornerstone of conceptual art.

"The police arrested Pierre for vandalism but he says his act was itself a work of art and a tribute to Duchamp and the other Dada artists.

"The work was on display as part of the big "Dada" exhibit which is currently at the Pompidou Center in Paris and will travel to Washington and New York this year."
