Post 6 : Your favourite artist

The topic for today is our favorite artist, is very interesting, but is difficult for me because choose only one artist, because I like many artists some very different, different periods and styles.

One of the artists that I like is Marcel Duchamp, he was a french artist, he comes from a family where a lot of integrants chose to be artist.
Duchamp developed his work in the twenty century and was related with artistic movement like a cubism and dada, but is difficult to inscribe this artist in only style, because him work is very wide and different.

One of my favorite work, is a painting called Nude descending the staircase No.2, this painting is considered one of the most bold and smart to the twenty century. This appreciation is that Duchamp sought to represent the movement, but a sequenced movement that giving the impression to the temporal course of events, this is some that had not been seen before in painting, moreover this work had influence to the chronophotography.

The representation to the movement is sometime that Duchamp reiterates and mark their works  Today this painting is in the Philadelphia Museum, institution that has most of the work of Duchamp.
