In the early days of modernism, conceptual artists such as Marcel Duchamp and George Grosz delighted in blurring the line between art and reality. In 1917, Duchamp submitted an upside-down urinal as a work of art, though one obviously lacking in the aesthetic appeal traditionally associated with Art with a capital A. This “found object” was unaltered except for its label. He named it “Fountain.” The piece was rejected by the show’s curator and was soon lost, yet went on to make art history.
