For those interested in Duchamp and chess I found this tidbit in "The
Oxford Companion to Chess". I knew he was involved with the game but I
hadn't realized to what extent. I just thought I'd post this for the heck
of it.
Duchamp, Marcel (1887-1968), French chessplayer and renowned artist. A
competitor in the amateur championship of 1924, four French championships
from 1924 to 1928, and four Olympiads from 1928 to 1933, Duchamp also
played in several minor tournaments, notably sharing first prize at Hyeres
1928 and winning the championship of Paris in 1932. His obsession for the
game intensified as he grew older. Of his marriage in 1927 Man Ray writes:
"Duchamp spent most of the one week they lived together studying chess
problems, and his bride, in desperate retaliation, got up one night when he
was asleep and glued the chess pieces to the board. They were divorced
three months later."
