Duchamp A Biography is an updated edition of the book which first came out in 1998. For both new and old fans this is an engaging biography that brings to life one of the most fascinating artists of the twentieth century. This is primarily a text book but there are illustrations and photographs throughout. For this new edition some of Duchamp's artworks are reproduced in color where previously they had been in black and white. Also newly added and updated for this 2014 edition is material about Duchamp's love affair with Maria Martins which set into motion his ladt major work, Etant donnes. And there is also more in-depth information about that final work which had come to light since the biography was first published. The production values of the book are fair. The paper and reproductions are crips and clean, but the paperback binding is a bit flimsy. However, for the content, this book gets five stars and highly recommended for those interested in Duchamp and twentieth century art.

*by D***D on Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2015*

We saw him speak at the New Orleans museum of art with his wife truly an evening to remember. I received this book as a gift it is without a doubt a insightful biography Tomkins explains that he is not a art critic because he actually likes the artists !
