Imens i livet hos Marcel Duchamp
Hele livet1904–1905
The Académie Julian: billiards instead of classes
He studied art at the Académie Julian — one of several “independent” academies that sprang up in reaction to the École des Beaux-Arts — but preferred playing billiards to attending classes.
1905
Military service and a printer’s shop in Rouen
In 1905 he began compulsory military service with the 39th Infantry Regiment while working for a printer in Rouen, where he learned typography and printing processes — skills he later used in his work.
1908–1909
The Salon d’Automne and the Salon des Indépendants
Thanks to the standing of his eldest brother Jacques, a member of a prestigious academy, Duchamp’s work was shown at the 1908 Salon d’Automne and the following year at the Salon des Indépendants; Fauvism and Cézanne’s proto-Cubism influenced his painting. The critic Guillaume Apollinaire, later a friend, called his nudes “very ugly” but predicted that Duchamp could reconcile art and the people.
