Semyon Khokhlov (English, Notre Dame) will present
“Reappraising Modernist Autonomy in the Early Career of Marcel Duchamp”
From Semyon: “This is a draft of an article I’m working on. It combines content from the first chapter of my dissertation with conceptual framing that I’ve been developing for the dissertation as a whole. The dissertation is devoted to exploring the ways exemplary modernist figures (Duchamp, Gertrude Stein, Alfred Stieglitz, and Ezra Pound) negotiated their commitment to autonomy and their participation in the modernist marketplace. I’m looking forward to all and any feedback but I’m especially interested in views on what I can do with the final section of the paper, which is really undeveloped.”
