Critics Review
“Especially fresh and elucidating…. Joselit’s work belongs in all art and academic libraries.” - Douglas McClemont, Library Journal; “Duchamp’s oeuvre is a kind of labyrinth in which one can easily get lost. Joselit’s work provides a remarkably original guide for it, and demonstrates, with radically new means, the centrality of Duchamp’s oeuvre in this century.” - Yve-Alain Bois, Joseph Pulitzer, Jr. Professor of Modern Art, Harvard University”
