Join acclaimed artists Rachel Harrison, Christian Marclay, and Cameron Rowland as they reflect on the legacy of Marcel Duchamp’s invention of the readymade as a form of art.
This event is part of Duchamp Talks: Artists on Artists, a series of conversations on the occasion of the exhibition Marcel Duchamp, in which contemporary artists and Duchamp experts alike reflect on his category-defying life in art. Please join us for illuminating conversations revealing Duchamp’s legacy and resonance for 21st-century artists.
Rachel Harrison is an artist known for her sculpture, photography, and drawing. Her work, in dialogue with art history, politics, and popular culture, often combines abstract and handmade forms with found objects.
Christian Marclay is an artist who explores the fusion of fine art and audio cultures, transforming sound and music into a visible, physical form through performance, collage, sculpture, installation, photography, and video.
Cameron Rowland is an artist who makes visible the institutions, systems, and policies that perpetuate systemic racism and economic inequality. Rowland’s research-intensive work often recontextualizes objects and documents to expose the legacies of racial capitalism.
Organized by the Department of Research Programs and the Marcel Duchamp curatorial team.
