Who is behind the most influential work of art of the 20th century? The answer to this question is highly debated. Is it by a celebrated male- or a forgotten female artist?

Art experts tumble over each other to prove their version of the truth. The interests are great and the arguments numerous. But what is the value of their truth, if the artist him-/herself wishes to remain anonymous?

Speculation about the work of art creates value, and that goes beyond the art market on which the many copies of the work circulate. When we try to get into the heads of the once so progressive artists themselves, the story takes an unexpected turn.

From Dada to data: Alreadymade, like Fountain in 1917, radically challenges the idea of authorship and identity, and does so in a remarkable setting: the digital afterlife.
