Let me drink your lips— Let me swallow your breath— Let me taste the perspiration of Your windtangled skin
Your black hair cascades In love's throes— Your face lightning—thunder A drunken flower.

“Herbstained—flowerstained—shellscented—seafaring—foresthunting—junglewise—desert gazing—rides heart from chest—lashing with beauty—afleet—across chimney—tinfoil river to meet another’s dark heart!”

these are my three fave cards from the "our tarot", a feminist deck i picked up a while ago. i like the devil and the tower cards bc of how spot on the historical figures are with the meaning of the cards, and i adore the eight of wands bc lyudmila pavlichenko is one of my fave historical figures of all time

say what you will about duchamp and the fountain, but I think it’s absolutely amazing that his one most well known piece of art is still causing nazis, trad people and conservatives to froth at the mouth over a hundred years later. absolutely incredible achievement. no notes

Not buying this guy's argument that this somehow undoes conceptual art in toto but it seems like the case for misattribution is very strong. The point that the piece would never have had such profound impact on the art world if it hadn't been attached to a more known (male) name is sound, but it's not like this claim can retroactively alter the past 100+ years of gallery art history and make all conceptual art null and void (as the author seems to desperately wish for). I'm glad Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven is getting some shine for her piece at last though. And honestly, even if it makes Duchamp look amoral and self-aggrandizing in retrospect, it's kind of a fun new layer of artifice added to the piece. A readymade concept where even the concept was borrowed!
