In The Glass Age, conceptual artist Alex Da Corte—renowned for works that shatter boundaries between media—transforms himself into the Dada pioneer. As Duchamp, Da Corte will deliver a lecture as a poem to hundreds of pictures in choreographed musical dialogue with composer Emily Wells. For this performance, Duchamp finds himself inside the prism world of copies, duplicates, replicas, proxies, memes—the places where, like in the visionary artist Man Ray’s rayographs, image, object, and time coalesce.
