Duchamp, Man Ray, Picabia: The Moment Art Changed Forever

Duchamp, Man Ray, Picabia: The Moment Art Changed Forever at the Tate Modern.

Duchamp invented the concept of the 'readymade': presenting an everyday object as an artwork, Man Ray pioneered avant-garde photographic and film techniques and Picabia’s use of kitsch, popular or low-brow imagery in his paintings undermined artistic conventions."
