Philadelphia Museum of Art opens Marcel Duchamp retrospective
Original: Philadelphia Museum of Art’s ‘Marcel Duchamp’ retrospective tries to contain an artist who refused to be contained
The Philadelphia Museum of Art has mounted a major retrospective devoted to Marcel Duchamp, the artist whose readymades and provocations reshaped modern art. Reviews, including from WHYY, argue the exhibition struggles to pin down an artist who spent his career resisting categorisation, framing the show as an attempt to contain an unruly legacy. The retrospective highlights Duchamp's deep ties to Philadelphia, which holds one of the world's foremost collections of his work.
Why now: A major Duchamp retrospective has opened, drawing attention because his anti-establishment legacy challenges how any museum can frame him.
