Marcel Duchamp’s postcard to Katherine Dreier, 1933

.

 In October 1933 Duchamp met with Nina and Wassily Kandinsky in Paris. They knew each other through 
Katherine Dreier who was close to both artists. Duchamp and the Kandinskys decided to send her a postcard. (…)

“Dear Katherine Dreier, 
We are in a Russian Restaurant, 
we are eating “Blini” and are drinking “Vodka”. 
It’s a pity you can’t be among us. 
Best wishes Nina Kandinsky 
[…] 
Short greetings Kandinsky”
