From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Marcel Duchamp, photograph published in Les Peintres Cubistes, 1913

This is an incomplete list of works by the French artist Marcel Duchamp (28 July 1887 – 2 October 1968), painter, sculptor, chess player, and writer whose work is associated with Cubism, conceptual art, and Dada.[1][2][3]

Duchamp is commonly regarded, along with Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse, as one of the three artists who helped to define the revolutionary developments in the plastic arts in the opening decades of the 20th century, responsible for significant developments in painting and sculpture.[4][5][6][7]

Artworks[]

The originals of several Duchamp "readymades" have been lost. An earliest surviving artist-authorized replica is listed, if known.
