This volume for the first time examines the women in and around Duchamp's life and work, focusing on contacts and convergences from Duchamp's youth up until his death in 1968. Some of the women gathered here were central figures in early twenty-century modernism, while others were part of fascinating intellectual and artistc networks that were, until now, in need of discovery. "Duchamp and the Women" introduces readers to the cultural circles and artistic movements in which the women presented were active and played a formative role. In addition to chronologically-grouped short biographies, comprehensive essays by Renate Wiehager and Katharina Neuburger—supplemented by a guest contribution from the literary scholar Sandro Zanetti—trace the paths of these protagonists as leading figures of early modernism and spokeswomen of a qualitatively new feminism. These essays deal with: Louise Arensberg (1879–1953), Gabrielle Buffet-Picabia (1881–1985) Katherine S. Dreier (1877–1952), Suzanne Duchamp (1889–1963), Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven (1874–1927), Peggy Guggenheim (1898–1979), Mina Loy (1882–1966), Maria Martins (1894–1973), Mary Reynolds (1891–1950), Rrose Sélavy (“created” in 1920), Gertrude Stein (1874–1946), Carrie, Ettie, and Florine Stettheimer (1870–1944), and Beatrice Wood (1893–1998). Original texts by and about the women, some of which appear here for the first time in German and English, broaden the scope of the book by incorporating contemporary historical voices. A comprehensive bibliography also provides researchers from various fields with an important basis for further investigations into the lives and works of the people gathered in Duchamp and the Women—including Duchamp himself.
