Daniel Mudie Cunningham marked the 'centenary of the readymade' with a tattoo of 'R. Mutt 1917' from Marcel Duchamp's Fountain as a queering of the revolutionary icon of 20th century western art, while acknowledging Baroness Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven who created the work before Duchamp took all the credit.
