Richard Hamilton died on September 13, 2011. [...] The famous collage he made in 1956, "Just what is it that makes today's homes so different, so appealing?" convincingly establishes his credentials as the father of British -- if not all -- Pop Art. [...] In addition to his own experiments, Hamilton was a lifelong devotee of Marcel Duchamp. [...] Pascal Goblot interviewed and filmed Richard Hamilton several times when making La Légende du Grand verre, a film about Duchamp's The Bride Stripped Bare by her Bachelors, Even, of which Hamilton made a replica for the Tate Gallery in 1966. The DVD is taken from these interviews.

Deutschland Dada (1969) - UbuWeb
This excellent documentary with commentary by Hans Richter who was still alive in 1969, concerns the contributions of German artists to the Dadaist movement. Created in 1916, the organizers rejected previous convention and delighted in nihilistic satire in painting, sculpture and literature. Comparisons are made between the movement and the political and social upheaval at the time of its release.

bada dada > our millenium ending
our crazy millenium ending.
that's our ending ending ending
up till now you've been our bounding,
now you're our millenium ending.
'cos up till now what has been going?
from grass to tree, we have been grazing.
and I boasted from grass to tree,
that Elton John had screwed granny.
and? my millenium ending?
up till now, you've been my standing!
now I'm fucking you unpretending
in the nightstand, as moonshine landing.
'cos we all do know very well,
that it is five past half past nine,
and mineral water will never hose our shit down.
Translated by Mari Falcsik
Vulgar songs and sublime conceptual poetry, alternative rock and phonic poems, body art and visual cabaret, diabolic solos and angelic dada choir, preschooler androgogics and harsh banalities are mixed in the film made in remembrance of the bohemian friend Bada Dada. Joy born from bitterness, beyond penguin-death and squirrel-dreams. No eyes and glasses left dry by the musical docu, revitalising the hearty pearls of this "unbearable idiot" and "redeeming genius". On your feet now, Hungarian dada-garde!

Marcel Duchamp
Posted on August 25, 2013
All chess players are artists. -- M. Duchamp
Duchamp stopped painting at a certain point in the 1920's, which was fairly early on in his life, but he didn't stop making art.
Dreams that Money Can Buy is a 1947 film by surrealist/dadaist Hans Richter (1888-1976, a 1912 member of the Blaue Reiter) that includes many artists. This is Duchamp's fragment, with music by John Cage. (As a matter of fact, Richter claims to have made the first abstract film Rhythmus 21 in 1921 and also made the interesting 8 x 8: A Chess Sonata in 8 Movements in 1957.)

Distant Mirrors (slideshow).
A podcast from the Norton Simon Museum.
This film records an in-depth interview with Duchamp which took place five years before his death, at the time of his first ever one-man show (at the Pasadena Art Museum). It records for posterity Duchamp talking in French about his life, his ideas on art, why he chose to continue living in America after fleeing France in 1915, and why he virtually abandoned his work as an artist in 1923. An engaging dialogue takes place between Duchamp and film-maker Jean-Marie Drot as they go around the Pasadena show, with the artist commenting on the exhibits and using them to explain the various stages of the development of his work. This is punctuated by the games of chess, which were for Duchamp a passion and a metaphor for the mental discipline he applied to his art. In this film we gain a rare glimpse of him talking with humour and insight about his ideas, and living up to the myth of the artist-philosopher that has grown up around him.
Jeu d'échecs avec Marcel Duchamp was filmed late 1963 in Pasadena and New York for the Radio Télévision Française (RTF); first broadcast on 8 June 1964 and then shown at the International Festival of Artistic Films and Films of Art (Bergamo, 19 September 1964). The English version was presented in a television broadcast in September 1964 in the 'Art and Man' Series.
"The goal of chess is to mate. We can thus see this picture as the record of a tableau vivant of a word play. Since Freud, vulgar theorists have held that chess and art, to pick two examples, are sublimations of sex. Given Duchamp's attitude towards wordplay versus theory, it is better to see his life long interest in chess and eroticism as a sublimation of this picture's wordplay! Given that the double meaning of "mate" does not exist in French, at last we have a satisfactory explanation of why Duchamp had to emigrate to America. In other words: in the beginning was the word; in the center the pun."

Duchamp comments in English in three consecutive clips on his evolution in painting and his implication in the iconoclastic ideas of Dada. Why did he take up chess? "Playing chess is like designing or constructing something." Of course his remarks stop before Étant Donné was revealed to the public in Philadelphia -- after his death.

Man Ray and the Cinéma Pur: Four Surrealist Films From the 1920s
in Film | April 30th, 2012
Man Ray was one of the leading artists of the avant garde of 1920s and 1930s Paris. A key figure in the Dada and Surrealist movements, his works spanned various media, including film. He was a leading exponent of the Cinéma Pur, or "Pure Cinema", which rejected such "bourgeois" conceits as character, setting and plot. Today we present Man Ray's four influential films of the 1920s.
Le Retour à la Raison, Emak-Bakia, L'Etoile de Mer and Les Mystères du Château de Dé on YouTube.

Le Retour à la Raison (1923) on Vimeo
"Acquiring a roll of a hundred feet of film, I went into my darkroom and cut up the material into short lengths, pinning them down on the worktable. On some strips I sprinkled salt and pepper, like a cook preparing a roast, on other strips I threw pins and thumbtacks at random; then I turned on the white light for a second or two, as I had done for my still Rayographs. Then I carefully lifted the film off the table, shaking off the debris, and developed it in my tanks. The next morning, when dry, I examined the work; the salt, pins and tacks were perfectly reproduced."
Man Ray described the process of creating Retour in his Self-Portrait.

Man Ray, Unconcerned But Not Indifferent - Video by art-in-tv.
Clip from the European exhibition tour; curator John Jacob at Martin-Gropius-Bau, Berlin.
Unconcerned But Not Indifferent follows the chronology of Man Ray's four working periods geographically: New York, Paris, Los Angeles, Paris. Alongside examples of Man Ray's most important works, the exhibition presents a selection of little-known works, preparatory sketches, documentation of finished pieces, as well as personal documents and objects that belonged to the artist. By placing his artwork in relation to the objects and images from which he drew inspiration, the exhibition creates a distinctive context for the experience and appreciation of Man Ray's extraordinarily wide-ranging creative production.
Les Mystères du Château du Dé (1929)

Hans Richter
Dreams that Money Can Buy
The plot:
Joe/Narcissus (Jack Bittner) is an ordinary man who has recently signed a complicated lease on a room. As he wonders how to pay the rent, he discovers that he can see the contents of his mind unfolding whilst looking into his eyes in the mirror. He realises that he can apply his gift to others ("If you can look inside yourself, you can look inside anyone!"), and sets up a business in his room, selling tailor-made dreams to a variety of frustrated and neurotic clients. Each of the seven surreal dream sequences in the diegesis is in fact the creation of a contemporary avant-garde and/or surrealist artist, as follows:
Desire - Max Ernst (Director/Writer)
The Girl with the Prefabricated Heart - Fernand Léger (Director/Writer)
Ruth, Roses and Revolvers - Man Ray (Director/Writer)
Discs - Marcel Duchamp (Writer)
Ballet - Alexander Calder (Director/Writer)
Circus - Alexander Calder (Writer)
Narcissus - Hans Richter (Director/Writer)

CD audio (16 janvier 2007)
Label: LTM
ASIN : B000JJRVSQ
25,77 euros
An enthusiastic Dada activist in Paris between 1920 and 1924, Satie collaborated extensively with Tristan Tzara, Man Ray, Pablo Picasso and Jean Cocteau, wrote often in Francis Picabia's journal 391, and was a sworn enemy of the proto-Surrealist faction lead by Andre Breton. According to Man Ray, Satie was "the only composer who had eyes." All of Satie's principle Dada-related works are included on this unique 70 minute CD, including: Trois morceaux en forme de poire, performed by Satie in July 1923 at Tzara's notorious Soirée du Coeur à barbe, at which fighting broke out between Tzara's supporters and the proto-Surrealist faction; Ragtime Dada, an extract from the ballet Parade performed at a series of Dada soirees by Kurt Schwitters in 1922; Entr'acte and Cinéma, both scores for Picabia's multi-media 'instantaneist' ballet Relâche performed in 1924. Cinéma was Satie's custom score for the celebrated intermission film by René Clair, while for their curtain call Satie and Picabia drove onstage in a tiny car, resplendent in jewels and furs, the whole production amounting to a dazzling act of anti-art provocation. Both are Satie's arrangements for solo piano. All pieces are performed on piano by Bojan Gorisek, and the booklet includes archive images and detailed historical notes by James Hayward.
