Notes and Projects for the Large Glass by Marcel Duchamp, ed. Arturo Schwarz

The beguiling, mystery-deepening notes of Marcel Duchamp that were made for and in conjunction with the masterpiece ‘The Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, Even’, also known as the Large Glass. This large and beautiful folio is the first edition published in 1969 by Thames and Hudson, and is edited by the frequent Duchamp interlocutor Arturo Schwarz. Nearly pristine, with the original transparent cover just slightly torn on the lower edge. A beautifully-produced publication. Schwarz’ introduction is a sincere attempt to understand one of the most confounding and brilliant works of art ever made.
