What concept did Duchamp introduce with "readymades"?

  • Mass production

  • Art of found objects

  • Industrial design

  • Art Nouveau

Answer

Art of found objects: Marcel Duchamp introduced the concept of "readymades," ordinary objects elevated to the status of art through the artist's selection and presentation. By declaring mundane items such as a urinal or a bicycle wheel as art, Duchamp challenged traditional notions of artistic creativity, authorship, and the boundaries of aesthetics, thereby redefining the very definition and purpose of art.
