In the life of Marcel Duchamp
The whole life1923
Back in Paris, and into chess
Back in Paris in 1923 he was in essence no longer a practising artist: his main interest became chess, which he studied for the rest of his life to the exclusion of most other activities.
1924
Appears in René Clair’s “Entr’acte”
In René Clair’s short film Entr’acte he is seen briefly playing chess with Man Ray.
1925
Becomes a chess master
He designed the poster for the Third French Chess Championship and played in it himself, finishing at 50 per cent (3–3 with two draws) and earning the title of chess master.
