Description: "Transit, transitional, transition: Dalia Judovitz catches Marcel Duchamp on the run with his art in a suitcase and his thought all boxed and ready to go. . . . She demonstrates how the theme of transition, reappearing from work to work, makes each piece reproduce some other piece, while all continue to exemplify an original which can no longer be found and which has no creator."--Jean-Francois Lyotard
Review Quotes: "The book appeals not just to art historians and critics of literature but to philosophers of methodology. Would that psychologists, anthropologists, and historians see and read this elegant and consummately designed object! Reprinting crisp reproductions of many of Duchamp's works and using a cursive typeface styled after Duchamp's signature for chapter headings and marginalia, the book is a delight to touch and behold. Both the author and the press deserve high praise not just for the content and form of the book but also for what it does to reinvent our relations with art and language."-- "SubStance"
