Within his oeuvre Duchamp practiced a variety of modernist idioms and invented an array of contradictory personas: artist and art dealer, conceptualist and craftsman, chess champion and dreamer, dandy and recluse. In \u003ci\u003eInfinite Regress\u003c\/i\u003e, David Joselit considers the plurality of identities and practices within Duchamp's life and art between 1910 and 1941, conducting a synthetic reading of his early and middle career. Taking into account underacknowledged works and focusing on the conjunction of the machine and the commodity in Duchamp's art, Joselit notes a consistent opposition between the material world and various forms of measurement, inscription, and quantification. Challenging conventional accounts, he describes the readymade strategy not merely as a rejection of painting, but as a means of producing new models of the modern self.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MIT Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47591029702807,"sku":"9780262600385","price":4536.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780262600385.webp?v=1774971359","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/infinite-regress-marcel-duchamp-1910-1941-9780262600385","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
