The Marcel Duchamp Prize is a major national benchmark prize in France, recognizing the most innovative artists of their generation in the country.
Works of 14 artists distinguished by the Marcel Duchamp prize are being displayed at the Red Brick Art Museum in Beijing, offering a glimpse of the varied contemporary art trends in France today.
The artists focus on transportation in all its forms, from the physical to the metaphysical and everything in-between.

Initiated in 2000 by the Association for the International Diffusion of French Art, each year the Marcel Duchamp Prize honors a winner from among four artists, either French or residing in France, working in the field of the plastic and visual arts.
The exhibition, running through June 26, provides another opportunity for a Chinese-Franco artistic encounter, furthering a constructive dialogue between the two countries.
