Round 7: Tossup 10

This artist produced a “Green Box” of notes for an artwork in which male figures are connected to a chocolate grinder and water wheel. Visitors look through a peephole to see a headless (10[3])nude raising a lamp (10[1])in a piece this person created 25 years after quitting art for chess. This artist left broken glass in a window-like piece split (10[1])between nine suitors and a bride. A 1912 painting by this artist was dubbed an “explosion in a shingle factory” for depicting a nude from several perspectives as she descends (10[1])a staircase. A snow shovel is one of many found objects modified by this artist, (10[1])including (10[1])one signed “R. Mutt.” For 10 points, name this Dada artist whose readymade Fountain is a repurposed toilet. ■END■ (10[1])
