Featuring loaned works reflecting the importance of
Marcel Duchamp’s relationship to his family, this installation, drawn largely from the permanent collection of the Bowdoin College Museum of Art, challenges the myth of artistic isolation. It addresses the importance of the networks that encouraged many of the leading practitioners of modern and contemporary art, including
Mary Cassatt,
Paul Cézanne,
Pablo Picasso, Marcel Duchamp,
Robert Rauschenberg, and
Jasper Johns.
