Believing that copies and originals offer comparable forms of aesthetic pleasure, Marcel Duchamp repeatedly replicated some of his works using different techniques, differentiating them through what he defined as “infra-thin variations on the theme.”

The workshop, designed and led by Claudia Corrent, sees each participant reproducing a single subject, obsessively over and over again, experimenting with different printing and impression techniques, developing images in a darkroom and manipulating them.
