BY OR OF MARCEL DUCHAMP OR RROSE SELAVY AT THE PASADENA ART MUSEUM
(DUCHAMP, MARCEL). Hopps, Walter. Pasadena, CA: Pasadena Art Museum, 1963. First Edition 1/2000. 4to. Wrappers in Acetate Jacket. Artist Monograph. Near Fine./Very Good -.. 56pp, profusely illustrated in b&w with three tipped-in color plates. Designed by Marcel Duchamp. In protective clear acetate dustwrapper. This graphically striking publication was designed by Marcel Duchamp in conjunction with his 1963 Pasadena Art Museum exhibition - his very first Museum retrospective. It takes the form of a then newly-deconstructed version of Robert Lebel's Trianon/Grove Press catalogue raisonné of the artist's work through 1963. A most handsome example of this uncommon item limited to two thousand unnumbered copies whose fragile acetate dust jacket shows some minimal creasing, closed tears, and a few small missing chips - none of these affecting the silkscreened facsimile of Duchamp's hand lettering. It has been priced accordingly. Inventory Number: 025738
