In one of my favored Art Museums - the Tate Modern in London - is a quite good representative exhibition featuring Marcel Duchamps (1887 - 1968), Man Ray (1890 - 1976) and Francis Picabia (1879 - 1953) that will last till the 26th May 2008.
May be the most known of the trio is Duchamps because of his readymades.
I personaly often prefere Picabia to Duchamp. Man Ray I only knew by name before this exhibition but now I have to admit that I like his work because its often sarcastic and critics the philistine way of live. All the tree of them often reference to erotic topics but not in a pornographic way more in a sarcastic.
As more than agree with the DADA movement there for Picabias and Duchamps early work period is very interesting to me. I am not very shure if the two where already in the DADA movement in Zurich but at least when DADA expanded to Paris they must have joined the movement.and
DADA is here
