    That Charles Demuth and Marcel Duchamp were friends is an undisputed historical fact. Drawing on new research, PhD. candidate Jonathan Frederick Walz argues that their relationship was actually closer than previously thought. “You should wait for fifty years or a hundred years for your true public,” once quipped Duchamp, and taking the artist at his word, this talk illuminates Charles Demuth’s fixation on Duchamp, revealing an interpersonal preoccupation secreted within an aesthetic delay, which has gone unrecognized over the last century—until now.
