About this product
Product Information
Published on the fiftieth anniversary of Marcel Duchamp's death, Duchamp's Last Day offers a radical reading of the artist's final hours. Just moments after Duchamp died, his closest friend Man Ray took a photograph of him. His face is wan; his eyes are closed; he appears calm. Taking this image as a point of departure, Donald Shambroom begins to examine the surrounding context--the dinner with Man Ray and another friend, Robert Lebel, the night Duchamp died, the conversations about his own death at that dinner and elsewhere, and the larger question of whether this radical artist's death can be read as an extension of his work. Shambroom's in-depth research into this final night, and his analysis of the photograph, feeds into larger questions about the very nature of artworks and authorship which Duchamp raised in his lifetime. In the case of this mysterious and once long-lost photograph, who is the author? Man Ray or Duchamp? Is it an artwork or merely a record? Has the artist himself turned into one of his own readymades? A fascinating essay that is both intimate and steeped in art history, Duchamp's Last Day is filled with intricate details from decades of research into this peculiar encounter between art, life, and death. Shambroom's book is a wonderful study of one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century.

Reviews
The American artist-writer-curator Donald Shambroom has written a breezy but minutely detailed book... It provides insightful supplementary information by focusing on the last day and death of arguably the most influential artist of the 20th century., the most engaging parts of Shambroom's volume instead contextualize Duchamp's life and art within 21st-century culture, Duchamp's Last Day is a bravo performance capturing the ephemerality of life and the physicality of art., Duchamp's Last Day highlights how, up until his very end, the artist placed substantial emphasis on gaiety and irreverence., Donald Shambroom's Duchamp's Last Day catalogs the many connections between life and art at Duchamp's final dinner party. Consistently intelligent and idiosyncratic.

Sent me a copy that is missing disc 2. The game is unplayable. Seller refuses to pay for return shipping so I have to get Ebay involved. Offers a 50% discount for a game I can't play because they only sent 1 disc. Terrible business very poor customer service. Would never buy from again and recommend everyone stays away from this seller.

I loved this comic when it first appeared and it still cracks me up. Time to untidy it to a new generation or two. This volume arrived fast and in great shape.
