Is today, in 1967, when Duchamp presented Monique Fong with Mona Lisa on German Stamp?
Page 868 from Arturo Schwarz's The Complete Works of Marcel Duchamp, revised and expanded paperback edition published 2000.
We know "the Hares and the Wusts are guests [of the Duchamps] for dinner at 28 West 10th Street" on 8 February 1967, and, before that, Monique visited with the Duchamps 19 January 1967 and 6 January 1967.

Catalogue of The Collection of the Société Anonyme: Museum of Modern Art 1920 is not listed within Arturo Schwarz's The Complete Works of Marcel Duchamp, revised and expanded paperback edition published 2000, and there may well a perfectly legitimate reason for that.

From The Discovery of Piranesi's Final Project
13 February 2023 Monday
For over two and a half decades now, I've always been critically dismissive of Tafuri's assessment of Piranesi's Ichnographia Campus Martius, and today I can plainly explain why: nothing Tafuri wrote put me on the track toward making actual discoveries leading to the ultimate disclosure of Ancient Circuses, Piranesi's final project.

And soon there will be DUCHANCE magazine. A guaranteed museum piece.

Cover all your bases.
 
Boy those summer nights in 1985 were fun. Note too how sleeveless was "in" that season. Packed the fashion career away before Hurricane Gloria though.

This is Why We Can't Have Nice Things
Regarding "the depth of architectural debate today" it seems like so the building, so the criticism. Yes, they match here, don't they.
cf. "I'm just starting to read a collection of critical essays on James Joyce, and so far it's interesting to see how Joyce's unique creativity seems to induce a creativity from the essayists that they might not normally have. I've sometimes noticed a similar effect when reading critical essays on Duchamp. Philippe Duboy's Lequeu: An Architectural Enigma is perhaps the apotheosis of this kind of critical effect creativity.
Is it then a fair hypothesis that one's critical deliberation of a unique creativity might well engender an as yet uncommon creativity from oneself?" --2013.08.18

"The Bilocating Barnes Foundation" by St. Catherine de Ricci, Albert C. Barnes and Louis I. Kahn
2004.02.13
[This] evening Philadelphia was witness to a great 100' to 150' column of fire. Ten minutes before 5 o'clock a small crew of water workers at the intersection of Olney and Ogontz Avenues (about 2.5 miles directly west from where I live) accidentally broke open a 20" gas main, and within a half minute there erupted an enormous explosion resulting in a tremendously powerful vertical jet of flame. Miraculously, no one was injured, and after four hours the pressure within the gas main was shut off, and the column of fire was gone.
Biblical proportions, even.

I now find myself wondering whether I should attempt compiling all my work into a daily (i.e., 365 day) index, where everything I've ever done on a certain day is catalogued, thus ultimately providing a unique calendar of my own life, which might offer interesting and even inspiring indications of how to continue proceeding with my work.
Re: Larry Poons
I wish museums mixed things up more. For example, I'd like to see Poons in a French period room, or Duchamp in a Ladies Room. Brancusi next to armor, why not? Museum as future-shock, sort of. Pick your destiny.
Hold me! Thrill me! Kiss me! You're my pride and joy, etc. Now rearrange me.
