Objet trouve
(FR = randomly-selected object): According to the surrealists any object can become a work of art, if it is selected for this purpose by the artist. In 1914, Duchamp presented a bottle rack as a sculpture. Often, the “objets trouves” is rather natural forms (roots, shells, pebbles, etc.), with some additions or changes made by the artist (Objets trouves assistes).
