Which painting styles did Marcel Duchamp experiment with during his early years in Paris?

During his early years in Paris, Marcel Duchamp rapidly experimented with several major contemporary painting trends. Rather than committing to a single approach, he viewed these styles as temporary experiments, shunning the habit of repetition.1

His stylistic progression included:

• Post-Impressionism: One of the initial movements he explored upon arriving in Paris.1
• Paul Cézanne: He incorporated the influence of this artist into his work.1
• Fauvism: Duchamp notably painted in this style several years after the movement had largely concluded, with the Portrait of the Artist’s Father serving as a primary example.1
• Cubism: He began incorporating traces of this style in 1911, though he eventually found it too systematic and static.1

Duchamp’s experimentation eventually led him toward a "nonobjective" expression of movement, which intersected with Futurism and Abstractionism. This evolution culminated in works like Nude Descending a Staircase (No. 2), which utilized a cinematic, machine-like effect that diverged significantly from traditional painting standards.1
