Dancing around Duchamp is a major multi-disciplinary season of events across visual art, dance, theatre, film and music. The season orbits around the legendary figure of Marcel Duchamp and the Art Gallery’s major new exhibition The Bride and the Bachelors: Duchamp with Cage, Cunningham, Rauschenberg and Johns organised by the Philadelphia Museum of Art and in association with Barbican Art Gallery. The Bride and the Bachelors is the first exhibition to explore Marcel Duchamp’s (1887–1968) impact on modern artists and it is examining one of the most important chapters in the history of contemporary art. The show brings together key figures of the avant-garde with a shared Dadaist or absurdist sensibility who changed the course of 20th-century art: Samuel Beckett, John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Marcel Duchamp, Alfred Jarry, Jasper Johns, and Robert Rauschenberg.
Showcasing work by different generations of artists and performers, the season allows audiences to explore the many threads that connect them and to journey among the absurd, the subversive, the provocative and the darkly humorous.
