Richard Hamilton, the father of British Pop Art, has devoted part of his life to the study of a piece by another great 20th century master: Marcel Duchamp, the inventor of “ready-made”. The Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, Even, also known as The Large Glass, is surely among the most complex and enigmatic works by the French artist. Hamilton has examined this work’s every detail in an attempt to render its significance, however complicated. Starting from unreleased interviews, Pascal Goblot’s film explores the exceptional rapport between two of the most influential figures of contemporary art.
