Description

One of the most famous artists of the 20th century, a dadaist and pioneer of Surrealism, Man Ray (1890-1976) became involved with photography in 1914. He was soon experimenting with different processes – solarization, negative images, multiple exposures – and in 1921 he created the ‘rayograph’ by exposing objects placed on to photosensitive material.

This volume collects together the best of his experimental work as well as portraits of some of the most important figures in modern art including Brancusi, Breton, Giacometti and Max Ernst.
