Richard Kegler created his first font to reproduce Marcel Duchamp’s handwriting for his graduate thesis on the Large Glass. Since then, his company P22 has developed hundreds of typefaces and a website that realizes the original thesis through animation.

The Duchamp font is no longer available, so those hoping to type in the artist’s script will be disappointed…or will simply need to teach themselves to emulate his readymade example.
