Chess game as a creative strategy of Marcel Duchamp
Abstract
The article is dedicated to Marcel Duchamp-an artist, in the broad sense of the word, and a chess player. Duchamp’s creative strategy was born out of the combination, synthesis and contradictions of artistic and game principles. The author examines the aesthetic and artistic principles of Duchamp, which were formed under the influence of the art of chess. Analyzing various manifestations of the principles of chess in Duchamp, as well as describing the famous performance in which the composer John cage played a chess game with Duchamp, the author of the article comes to the conclusion that in Duchamp’s work, the chess game acquires the status of a creative strategy.
