Features: This book traces the artist's life experiences, artistic style, and the maturation of their artistic thought as its thread. Based on the narration, explanation, and analysis of numerous life photographs, works, and manuscripts, and supported by rich historical materials, it comprehensively records the artist's growth journey from various aspects such as family relationships, daily life, emotional entanglements, and the laws of artistic development. It tells readers how the artist was recognized by the secular society, and also provides enlightenment for understanding modern artworks. To put it another way, only by allowing the artist to step out of the sacred of art and into the lives of ordinary people can readers realize that Duchamp was not only a great artist but also a living, breathing person with the ordinary human qualities of joys, sorrows, emotions, and desires.
