Notes de l'éditeur
- Duchamp created it and signed this piece as R.Mutt to go into an exhibit by the Society of independent artists. All work was to be shown, however the Fountain was hidden during the show.The original was lost and Duchamp didn’t create a reproduction of this until the 1950s.
- Max Ernst and Dorothea Tanning
- his work frequently displays a juxtaposition of ordinary objects in an unusual context, giving new meanings to familiar things.
- Magritte points out that no matter how closely, through realism-art, we come to depicting an item accurately, we never do catch the item itself—we cannot smoke tobacco with a picture of a pipe. “In a recent painting, I have shown an apple in front of a person's face At least it partially hides the face. Well then, here we have the apparent visible, the apple, hiding the hidden visible, the person's face. This process occurs endlessly. Each thing we see hides another, we always want to see what is being hidden by what we see. There is an interest in what is hidden and what the visible does not show us. This interest can take the form of a fairly intense feeling, a kind of contest, I could say, between the hidden visible and apparent visible” – Rene Magritte.
- The general interpretation of the work is that the soft watches are a rejection of the assumption that time is rigid or deterministic. This idea is supported by other images in the work, such as the wide expanding landscape, and the other limp watches, shown being devoured by insects.
- Salvador Dali was known for his eccentric appearance and behavior. In 1936, Dalí took part in the London International Surrealist Exhibition . His lecture, entitled Fantomes paranoiaques authentiques , was delivered while wearing a deep-sea diving suit and helmet. [28] He had arrived carrying a billiard cue and leading a pair of Russian wolfhounds, and had to have the helmet unscrewed as he gasped for breath. He commented that "I just wanted to show that I was 'plunging deeply' into the human mind."
- The drawers refer to what is “hidden” or the subconscious in man. The burning giraffe is a symbol of strife or war.
