In Western Art

In history, Marcel Duchamp has always been a controversial figure. Some people call him rigorous. A serious artist, he is the pioneer of experimental art in the 20th century and the patron saint of modern art; some people call him a mocker of high art, a poisonous snake in the art basket, and the devil who destroys beauty.

P. The massacres during World War I made Duchamp despair. He led like-minded artists to launch a protest movement, which is the so-called Dada movement. "Dada" means wooden horse or "unconscious" in French. "Language", the latter seems to be more in line with the spirit of this movement. People often think that Dadaism has a nihilistic color, and its own goal is to let the world understand that all established values, principles or standards of beauty are already there. Destroyed by the First World War, it became meaningless during the short period of popularity from 1916 to 1943. Dadaism fiercely spread irrational and anti-art ideas, and Duchamp placed his signature and title on a bottle rack. Or put them on snowplows, urinals and other objects, and then display them as works of art

In 1905, 18-year-old Marcel Duchamp pretended to learn painting in order to avoid military service. Printmaking, became an artist. No one expected that this young man would become the first person to rewrite the history of Western art.
