Also at MOMA is Marcel DuChamp\’s Fountain. I first saw a picture of it in art class. I really like the idea of ready-made, \”found art\” and the fact that everyday objects can be considered art. I especially like Fountain, as it\’s just a urinal but it also has a minimal beauty to it. Anyway, there\’s a big difference between seeing a picture of an artwork in a textbook, and seeing the actual piece in person. It\’s much bigger than I thought it would be. And it really is just a urinal with \”R. Mutt\” written on the side.
