Making sense of Marcel Duchamp.
Apparently Duchamp probably made his famous Fountain. An American Art Historian her concluded in her PhD thesis that no such urinal was ever made, after searching in vain through literally thousands of toliet catologues for the model Duchamp signed and submitted to the Society of Independent Artists show in 1917. He also wrote about in the Dada NY "zine" The Blind Man.
"The only works of art America has given are her
plumbing and her bridges." - Marcel Duchamp
