Camera would never have done it justice. Too subtle, light way too dim in the room. Looks like New York yawned or smirked (Johnson). I guess it needed a scandal in the form of a copyright suit, or the Duchamp scholars getting all up in arms in the pages of Art in America, as they did a while back (my memory on that is a bit hazy--can't remember if that was when someone suggested the readymades weren't found but fabricated, or some other issue--I know A. Schwarz and some other writers duked it out over several months)
