# PHILADELPHIA / Marcel Duchamp room in the Museum of Art

The Philadelphia Museum of Art is worth visiting for one room, the Marcel Duchamp's one. It not really by the quantity but more by the quality of the work proposed that this room seems to be a self-sufficient Duchamp exhibition.
The big glass peace of The Bride Stripped Bare by her Bachelor, even is here obviously and also an important amount of preparatory drawings and texts. A bunch of famous ready-mades (including the urinal/fountain) are also present, series of Female Fig Leaf (a molding of a female sex) and beautiful machinistic paintings of the Bride and the Nude Descending a Staircase...
In a nutshell, a Must see !
