It Will Happen to Me as to Them features the names of artist recommendations written by Pablo Picasso for Walt Kuhn, the key organizer of the 1913 Armory Show in New York City. Picasso lists a sole woman, Marie Laurencin, whose image is highlighted separately from the names of other artists which appear on the steps--a nod to Marcel Duchamp's scandalous Nude Descending Staircase. Kuhn added the name of painter Georges Braque (1882-1963) to the original hand-written list.
