Overview"The iconoclastic creations of Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968) radically changed the 20th century art as well as our notion of it. Munich's role in this is worthy of note. Annoyed at the rejections of his painting Nude Descending a Staircase, No.2 by the Salon des Indépendants, Duchamp traveled to Munich in late June 2012. He would ultimately remain for nearly three months, developing and preparing several important works including The Large Glass.
