Marcel Duchamp in Munich - Kunstbau Lenbach Haus - Munich


last chance: through July 15th

On the 100th anniversary of Marcel Duchamp’s stay in Munich the Lenbachhaus has decided to mark this key moment in the artist’s life with an exhibition. 


Marcel Duchamp changed art history. His painting “Nude, Descending a Staircase, No. 2” (1912) captured the ideas and influences of a whole epoch in one iconic image. His readymades fundamentally altered our ideas of what art is, of how artists produce it, and of the institution of the museum – unlike no other idea in the art of the twentieth century.
