As he wasn't capable of making Art, lacking an
appropriate skill set, he was appropriately denied.
Regardless he made quite a few artifacts that
represent his place and time quite well. I am reminded
of the film, The Gods Must Be crazy. Much of what he
did was only antisocial and had no larger context.

Finding a Duchamp in a museum only suggests that it is
an artifact. Most of what we find in museums is only
artifacts. Very little is Art. Seeing Duchamp's work
in museums proves little about Duchamp and much about
the poor quality of art education and the knowledge of
curators.
