Duchamp's LHOOQ (She has a hot ass)


Art is either plagiarism or revolution. Paul Gauguin

Marcel Duchamp - LHOOQ (“She has a hot ass”)


L.H.O.O.Q., a cheap postcard-sized reproduction of the Mona Lisa,upon which Duchamp drew a mustache and a goatee. The “readymade” done in 1919, is one of the most well known act of degrading a famous work of art. The title when pronounced in French, puns the frase “Elle a chaud au cul”, translating colloquially in “She has a hot ass”.
