Le Coeur à gaz, 1946

 Item — Box 614: [Barcode: 31858072461001]
Identifier: CC-55605-64906
Scope and Contents Wikipedia: The Gas Heart or The Gas-Operated Heart[1] (French: Le Cœur à gaz) is a French-language play by Romanian-born author Tristan Tzara. It was written as a series of non sequiturs and a parody of classical drama"”it has three acts despite being short enough to qualify as a one-act play. A part-musical performance that features ballet numbers, it is one of the most recognizable plays inspired by the anti-establishment trend known as Dadaism. The Gas Heart was first staged in Paris, as part of the 1921 "Dada Salon" at the Galerie Montaigne.In The Gas Heart, Tzara's appears to have aimed at overturning theatrical tradition, in particular the three-act play, which resulted in the suggestion that the text is "the greatest three-act hoax of the century".

L.H.O.O.Q., 2005

The title is essentially a phonetic game. As Duchamp himself noted in a 1966 interview, "I really like this kind of game, even in any language, some astonishing things happen." When read quickly in French, the title L.H.O.O.Q. sounds like a sentence translating to "She has a hot ass." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
