The Adventures of Munich in Marcel Duchamp

Bag om The Adventures of Munich in Marcel Duchamp

In the summer of 1912, Marcel Duchamp took a train to Munich and stayed there for three months. Very little direct knowledge remains about that trip. Immediately afterward, Duchamp gave up on painting and later in his life referred to Munich as the site of his 'complete liberation.' Roman Muradov's highly unreliable narrator attempts to reconstruct this period, interrogating from different angles the fundamental futility of retelling another person's life. The result is a fabulist satire that questions Duchamp's legacy, his silence and sexuality, and the sources of the work that made him famous. At once meticulously researched and wildly irreverent, The Adventures of Munich in Marcel Duchamp is an anti-biography worthy of the great trickster.
