From Mona Lisa to L.H.O.O.Q.: a heady, handsome publication on Da Vinci's influence on Duchamp

Two of the most dynamic minds in art history--Italian polymath Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) and French American proto-conceptualist Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968)--are separated by almost five hundred years. Mirror Image: Marcel Duchamp and Leonardo da Vinci brings these visionaries together in a groundbreaking publication by visual artist, writer, curator and videographer Donald Shambroom (born 1950), accompanying an exhibition at Sean Kelly New York. Mirror Image follows Duchamp through Paris, Munich and New York to Renaissance Italy via the writings of the High Renaissance master and into an artistic practice that would change art as we know it. This volume uncovers da Vinci's unlikely yet undeniable influence on Duchamp's revolutionary practice through comparisons of da Vinci's texts and Duchamp's notes alongside visual analyses of their works, offering a new narrative connecting two titans of art.
