DUCHAMP PGM 8: MARCEL DUCHAMP: A GAME OF CHESS
[JEU D'ÉCHEC AVEC MARCEL DUCHAMP] "Filmed in 1963 the program offers an in-depth dialogue between Duchamp and filmmaker Jean-Marie Drot over a game of chess and a tour of Duchamp's first one man show at the Pasadena Art Museum in 1963. Duchamp details his life and work only five years before his death in a discussion of his time in the United States after fleeing France in 1915. The discussion touches on his view of the country in social and political terms as well as its impact on his own work, intermingled with visual contemplations on the progression of his artwork from painting to photographs throughout his career." –ACMI
