You have to know that it's there or you may miss it. I've been to the museum many times, being a Philly native, and even to the Duchamp room several times, but it wasn't until the most recent trip (this summer) that I saw Etant Donnes. It was only because of a staff member of the museum that we got to see the work--which was the highlight of the trip.

And as you thought I should know it it means it's pretty public. Olivier Le 04-07-28, à 15:13, Maurice Rickard a écrit :

So what are we to make of Duchamp's _Etant Donnés_, then? --
