New Gagosian Gallery to Showcase Duchamp’s Radical ‘Readymades’

Duchamp's provocative works return to the Upper East Side, stirring old debates in a new setting.

The exhibition will run concurrently with the artist's first United States retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art. Opening on April 25, Gagosian's upcoming display features several of Duchamp's celebrated readymades.


Having opened its first NYC location in 1989, Gagosian recently moved to a ground-level space after vacating its headquarters due to a building buyout by Bloomberg Philanthropies. This new gallery marks a fresh chapter for both the gallery and the artist, whose readymades have long challenged notions of art.


The show includes replicas of iconic pieces such as 'Fountain' (1917) and 'Bicycle Wheel' (1913), alongside other works like 'L.H.O.O.Q.' (1964, after 1919 original) and 'Porte-bouteilles (Bottle Dryer)' (1964, after 1914 lost original). These pieces, which Duchamp converted from everyday objects into art, continue to provoke discussions on the boundaries of what constitutes artistic value.


As Gagosian's new gallery reopens, old debates about art and authenticity are set to resurface. The exhibition promises a fascinating exploration of how these works have evolved over time, offering fresh insight into their enduring impact.
