Knowing my appreciation for artist Marcel Duchamp, Dave Praeger sent me this:
"In my book "Poop Culture: How America is Shaped by its Grossest National Product" (published by your friends at Feral House), I examine the impact of Victorian bathroom morality on every aspect of society, including art. A significant portion of the chapter on art focuses on Duchamp's "Fountain" — the most important toilet in the history of art. I've posted a PDF excerpt for Boing Boing readers to enjoy."
