现成物（英語：found object，源自法语objet trouvé的仿译）又称为现成艺术（found art）[1][2][3]，是由日常物品创造的艺术品，有时会加以改装，所用的这些物品通常不被认为是艺术创作的材料，并且一般具有非艺术功能。[4]巴勃罗·毕加索最早公开使用了这一概念，当时他将打印出的藤椅图像粘到他的画作《有藤椅的静物》（Still Life with Chair Caning，1912年）上。几年后马塞尔·杜尚制作的一系列现成品（ready-made）被认为达到了这一概念的极致，他挑选了一些日常物品并且在完全不经修饰的情况下指定这些物品为艺术品。[5]最著名的例子是他1917年的作品《喷泉》。这是他从商店购买的一个标准小便斗，他直接将其放在一个基座上展示。从严格意义上说，“ready-made”一词仅适用于杜尚的作品[6]。他在纽约期间从服装行业借用了这个词（法語：prêt-à-porter ，意为“成衣”) ，“ready-made”尤指其1913年至1921年间的作品。

On the surface, anyway, there is no mystery about the making of the great bulk of works of artifactual art; they are crafted in various traditional ways—painted, sculpted, and the like. (Later, I will attempt to go below the surface a bit.) There is, however, a puzzle about the artifactuality of some relatively recent works of art: Duchamp's readymades, found art, and the like. Some deny that such things are art because, they claim, they are not artifacts made by artists. It can, I think, be shown that they are the artifacts of artists. (In Art and the Aesthetic I claimed, I now think mistakenly, that artifactuality is conferred on things such as Duchamp's Fountain and found art, but I will not discuss this here.)

That is what we call found art—a genre of art that started umpteen years ago with a guy in New York who took a urinal and cleverly refashioned it into a fountain. Found art is created when odd, disparate, unlikely, even long-abandoned castoffs are put together with other similarly unexpected remnants to create something new and, if all goes as planned, lovely.
