''Bicycle Wheel'' is a readymade by Marcel Duchamp consisting of a bicycle fork with front wheel mounted upside-down on a wooden stool. In 1913 at his Paris studio he mounted the bicycle wheel upside down onto a stool, spinning it occasionally just to watch it. Later he denied that its creation was purposeful, though it has come to be known as the first of his readymades. "I enjoyed looking at it," he said. "Just as I enjoy looking at the flames dancing in the fireplace." It was not until he began making readymades a few years later in New York that he decided ''Bicycle Wheel'' was a readymade. There he realized the 2nd version.〔Tomkins, Calvin: ''Duchamp: A Biography'', Henry Holt and Company, Inc., 1996. ISBN 0-8050-5789-7〕 The original version of 1913 and the version of 1916-17 were lost. Duchamp recreated yet another version of the sculpture in 1951. ''Bicycle Wheel'' is said to be the first kinetic sculpture.〔Artspeak, by Robert Atkins, 1990, Abbeville Press, ISBN 978-1-55859-127-1〕 ==See also== *Found object *Lumino kinetic art *Readymades of Marcel Duchamp 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bicycle Wheel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
