Kunst als Experiment: Marcel Duchamps ""3 Kunststopf-Normalmasse""

By (author) Herbert Molderings

| on special |

normal price: R 754.95

Price: R 716.95


| book description |

Herbert Molderings kommt mit dem vorliegenden Buch das unbestreitbare Verdienst zu, die Enstehungsgeschichte dieses bislang erstaunlich enigmatisch gebliebenen Werks ausgeleuchtet und es in die künstlerische Entwicklung Duchamps eingeordnet zu haben. Prinzipien der nicht-euklidischen und der topologischen Geometrie, Grundsätze der konventionalistischen Wissenschaftstheorie des Mathematikers Henri Poincaré kommen in diesem Bildexperiment ebenso zum Ausdruck wie Alfred Jarrys humoristische 'Pataphysik', die Gesetze postuliert, welche nur im Einzelfall gelten, sowie Raymond Roussels sprachspielerische Techniken. Alle diese Ideen konvergierten in Duchamps radikal individualistischer Lebens- und Kunstauffassung, in der nur der Einzelne zählt, während soziale Normen von untergeordneter Bedeutung sind.
