The title of the project derives from À l’Infinitif, known as White Box, a collection of notes and reflections on mathematics, the science of perspective and the fourth dimension, suggesting ways of thinking that transcend the limits of ordinary perception, published in New York in 1966 by the Cordier & Ekström gallery. The infinite becomes the key to understanding the project: not merely a mathematical and spatial concept, but the possibility of conceiving art as a process that is never definitively concluded. The grammatical use of the infinitive in the title evokes a verbal form not bound by a specific time or a particular subject, expressing an action that is potentially open-ended and permanent.

It is this openness that guides Duchamp. À l’Infinitif Project, whose periodic activations will be accompanied by a work by the artist from the Antonio Dalle Nogare Collection, on display in the Vault room on the second floor of the Foundation.
