Two New Publications: La Broyeuse de Chocolat & The Kings of The B's

Harald Harzheim
THE KINGS OF THE B's: JEAN-LUC GODARD & ROGER CORMAN

Godard and Corman have worked concurrently on the same themes and subjects, using similar stylistic devices and production techniques. The fact that this affinity has so far remained undiscovered has its explanation in hard-set opinions and judgment criteria.  Harald Harzheim has now succeeded in breaking this mindset, enabling us see the work of these radical independent filmmakers in a completely new perspective.

This is the first publication ever to be devoted entirely to Duchamp's Broyeuse de chocolat, and the world's tiniest museum will—likewise for the first time ever—be changing its location and, for the duration of a whole summer, be showing the high-caliber exhibition La broyeuse de chocolat in front of the exhibition building of the Institut Mathildenhöhe Darmstadt. The exhibition has been conceived by the artists ­Caroline Bachmann and Stefan Banz, the inventors and operators of the Kunsthalle Marcel Duchamp. This book is a veritable treasure trove for aficionados of, and newcomers to, the 'sweet' concept art of Marcel Duchamp.
