14. Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968) The Ready-made … a lovely form has been revealed, freed from its functional purpose, therefore a man clearly has made an aesthetic contribution. Mr Mutt has taken an ordinary object, placed it so its useful significance disappears, and thus has created a new approach to the subject.

15. Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968) The Ready-made … Whether Mr Mutt with his own hands made the fountain or not has no importance. He CHOSE it. He took an ordinary article of life, placed it so that its useful significance disappeared under the new title and point of view - created a new thought for that object.

24. The Everyday Walter Benjamin (1892-1940) The revolutionary strength of Dadaism lay in testing art for its authenticity. You made still-lifes out of tickets, spools of cotton, cigarette stubs, and mixed them together with pictorial elements. You put a frame round the whole thing. And in this way you said to the public: look, your picture frame destroys time; the smallest authentic fragment of everyday life says more than painting. Just as a murders bloody fingerprint on a page says more than the words printed on it. (1934)
