Description

"During the years of World War I, Louise and Walter Arensberg, wealthy collectors of modern art, opened their apartment on 67th Street off Central Park West in Manhattan to nearly nightly soirées, exciting intellectual gatherings where American poets and artists--fueled by drinks and hors d'oeuvres--intermingled with their European counterparts, most of whom fled to New York seeking refuge from the war. In the introduction to this publication, readers are invited to join a party that took place in the Arensberg apartment on the night of May 25, 1917. Most of the guests assembled there had come from the Blindman's Ball, a fancy-dress event held at Webster Hall in the East Village to celebrate the publication of The Blind Man, a vanguard periodical that was designed to serve as the voice of the newly formed Society of Independent Artists, an organization dedicated to staging annual, prize and jury-free art exhibitions in New York. The second issue of The Blind Man--which appeared just a few weeks earlier--was devoted to a defense of R. Mutt's submission of an ordinary men's urinal to the first exhibition under the provocative title Fountain, but the object had been refused from display on grounds that it was indecent and not art by any definition. The controversial artifact was secretly submitted to the exhibition by another guest at the party that evening, Marcel Duchamp, famous in America as painter of The Nude Descending a Staircase, the cause célèbre of the Armory Show of 1913"--Back Cover.
