Here is a Marcel Duchamp autograph we have sold in the past:
Marcel Duchamp Autograph Letter Signed
Henri-Robert-Marcel Duchamp (/duːˈʃɑː/; French: [maʁsɛl dyʃɑ̃]; 28 July 1887 – 2 October 1968) was a French-American painter, sculptor, chess player, and writer whose work is associated with Cubism, Dada, and conceptual art. Duchamp is commonly regarded, along with Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse, as one of the three artists who helped to define the revolutionary developments in the plastic arts in the opening decades of the 20th century, responsible for significant developments in painting and sculpture. Duchamp has had an immense impact on twentieth-century and twenty first-century art, and he had a seminal influence on the development of conceptual art. By the time of World War I he had rejected the work of many of his fellow artists (such as Henri Matisse) as “retinal” art, intended only to please the eye. Instead, Duchamp wanted to use art to serve the mind.
Rare autograph letter signed by the acclaimed 20th century conceptual artist Marcel Duchamp. Composed on 20 November 1967, Duchamp writes to a curator at Bamberger’s department store, where Duchamp had earlier, in 1960, installed a window display for the English translation of Robert Lebel’s monograph “Sur Marcel Duchamp”. In English from his home in New York, Duchamp writes in full, “Dear Mr. Martin Stuart / Thank you for your kind invitation to visit the exhibition you have organized – / Unfortunately my health is not what it was when I came to Bamberger’s a few years ago. / Please accept my regrets to be unable to come to Newark. / With my best wishes for your very comprehensive show. / Sincerely yours / Marcel Duchamp”. Single page letter measures 5.75″ x 7.75″. Single fold and light creasing, otherwise near fine. Sold for $1,957.
