Marcel Duchamp: The Art of the Possible

Directed by Matthew Taylor, “Marcel Duchamp: The Art of the Possible” focuses on one of the most influential artists of the 20th century, Marcel Duchamp, and his intellectual and artistic legacy. Rather than a simple biopic, the documentary released in 2020, concentrates on how Duchamp’s ideas influenced and changed the consciousness of society and the way we perceive art, culture, and aesthetics. While exploring the effects of the artist’s revolutionary approach on contemporary art in the 20th and 21st century, the director also includes comments from artists such as Jeff Koons, Joseph Kosuth, and Alison Knowles, important art historians and museum curators. The documentary also features extensive information about Duchamp’s important works such as Nude Descending a Staircase No. 2, 3 Standard Stoppages, and The Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, Even.
