Le pliage de Marcel Duchamp se base sur une observation de l'artiste : quand une pendule est vue de côté, elle n'indique plus l'heure. Version en trois dimensions d'une note contenue dans la Boîte verte, le pliage peut être manipulé de manière à tenir debout. Il vient illustrer l'Inventeur du temps gratuit, un portrait imaginaire de Duchamp par son ami Robert Lebel. Le personnage principal de La Double vue, un new-yorkais nommé A. Loride, partage également la fascination des deux artistes pour la maîtrise du temps.



First edition, deluxe copy, comprising 5 etchings by Alberto Giacometti, a suite of 8 cancelled etchings and a signed pliage by Marcel Duchamp. This copy is enriched with a suite of cancelled proofs of the 8 etchings, and an artist proof of one of the etchings, inscribed by Giacometti to Marcel Duchamp.
