'It's about time that a publication reveals the vastness of Duchamp's influence and thinking in the 20th and 21st centuries. I have absolute praise for Girst's achievement with this historic publication' - Jeff Koons
'Girst elegantly unravels the skeins of Duchamp's thinking. 'The Duchamp Dictionary' is an essential compendium for puzzling out an essential artist' - Richard Armstrong, Director Guggenheim Museum and Foundation
