The project emerged from a conversation between Allison Leader and Richard Field about the impact of reproductive techniques on 16th- and 17th-century media.

This beautifully illustrated book highlights the unique history of the Société Anonyme, Inc., an organization founded in 1920 by the artists Katherine S. Dreier (1877–1952), Marcel Duchamp (1887–1968), and Man Ray (1890–1976). As America’s first “experimental museum” for modern art, the Société Anonyme provided a means for artists, rather than historians, to chronicle the rise of modernism.
