His meeting with Marcel Duchamp in 1910 had a decisive influence on Picabia's personality and art: he moved from Fauvism to Cubism and geometric abstraction. Other accounts have them becoming friends around 1911 in the Puteaux Group.

The Puteaux Group: friendship with Apollinaire
Around 1911 Picabia joined the Puteaux Group, whose members he had met at Jacques Villon's studio; there he became friends with Marcel Duchamp and close friends with Guillaume Apollinaire, while the group also included Gleizes, La Fresnaye, Léger and Metzinger.

The only Cubist at the Armory Show
The wealthy Picabia was the only Cubist to attend the Armory Show in New York in person, where he showed four paintings; the press was largely hostile, but he was widely interviewed and at once became a major name in New York's art circles.
