Duchampiana [videorecording] : nude descending a staircase / Shigeko Kubota. [1976]

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/407873475

Inspired by Duchamp's study of motion in his painting, Nude descending a staircase (1912), Kubota uses video to explore movement and temporality. In this single-channel combination of color video, color-synthesized video, and color Super-8 film transferred to video, a nude woman descends and ascends a staircase built by George Maciunas at Anthology Film Archives, New York.

1 videocassette of 1 (U-Matic) (8 min.) : si., col. ; 3/4 in. original.
