A Urinal, a "Punk" Baroness and a Dinner Party

Subscriber-only episode

Marcel Duchamp created one of the most influential works of art in the 20th century. Or did he? There are some who theorize that a woman — “proto-punk” poet and Dada-ist Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven — is the true genius behind the groundbreaking “Fountain” urinal sculpture that rocked the art world in 1917. Learn more about this attention-seeking baroness and the potential evidence linking her to this iconic artwork in this week’s episode. And stay for the “Dinner Party” — Judy Chicago’s monumental homage to women’s history, which includes plenty of “lost ladies” featured on this podcast!
