Hardcover. Condition: New. An exciting monograph dedicated to an extraordinary figure and one of last century?s most famous and influential artists. Man Ray (1890-1976) was a photographer, painter, and creator of objects, experimental films, and images which were at times enigmatic. This catalog, which presents more than 200 works and compares and contrasts images with biographical details, is divided into three main sections: Man Ray?s formative years spent between New York and an artists? colony in Ridgefield, New Jersey; the Paris period; and the period spent between Hollywood and Paris, France-the city he ultimately chose to adopt as his home.The publication describes the creation of some of his most famous pieces and the motifs-very often of females-that inspired the works. Man Ray?s life was marked by a succession of love affairs with famous and intriguing women, and this catalog dedicates several sections to this topic. The book also deals with the themes permeating Man Ray?s work throughout the years, such as his passion for chess, the relationship between reality and illusion, and experimental photography and film. Comparisons are also made with the works of some of the most important artists of the twentieth century, such as Pablo Picasso, Marcel Duchamp, Constantin Brancusi, Jean Arp, and Francis Picabia. …

Hardcover. Condition: New. When American-born Surrealist Man Ray died in 1976, he left behind thousands of photo negatives, mostly portraits taken in his studio after his arrival in Paris in 1921. The Centre Georges Pompidou, which has owned them since the mid-1990s, has duly catalogued the collection of negatives and is now in a position to bring out what is an encyclopedic publication in the best sense of the term. It attests both to Man Ray s ability as a portrait photographer and to the quality of his archive as a monument to cultural history. The catalog features 500 portraits, each of which is explained in a short commentary. Since Man Ray's clientele was made up of members of Dadaist and Surrealist circles, of artists and painters, of writers and US emigrants of the Lost Generation, of aristocrats, and paragons of the worlds of fashion and theater, the book is at the same time a marvelous Who's Who and an indispensable reference work for a broad range of different historians and scholars of the 20th century.…

Man Ray made several different studies for the cover; until finally settling on this image of his own bust looking down on a blue-eyed blonde contemplating a plaster hand cradling, a fragile lithtbulb that mirrors a catching toy (a ball an a peg)" (D. Levy Srauss in Roth). - "Man Ray's work introduced a particular note [to Surrealism], since he used photography and recognized early on that this medium could reproduce the effects of object-based art in two-dimensional form. Photography was in a position to preserve the ordinary and to unleash surreal effects" (P. Stepan, Icons of Photography 26). - Bei der Widmungsempfängerin handelt es sich um die amerik. Kunstsammlerin Rosalind Gersten Jacobs (1925-2019), die mit allen wichtigen Künstlern der Dada- und Surrealistenbewegung befreundet war. Sie und ihr Mann Melvin Jacobs lernten Man Ray und seine Frau Juliet 1954 auf einer Geschäftsreise in Paris kennen und waren lebenslang mit dem Paar eng befreundet. Zwischen 1956 und 1958 porträtierte Man Ray R. Gersten Jacobs mehrfach. 1955 freundete sich Gersten auch mit Lee Miller und Roland Penrose an und die beiden Paare besuchten sich häufig in Chiddingly (GB) und New York. Einen signierten Abzug von Lee Millers Portrait von Charlie Chaplin (1930) erwarb Gersten für ihre Sammlung. Das Herzstück der Sammlung war Man Rays wohl bekanntestes Foto "Le Violon d'Ingres" von 1924.

Condition: Molto ben conservato. Legatura editoriale in tela con illustrata e custodia in cartoncino, cm 28.5 x 22, pp 149 (5). Buono stato di conservazione. Catalogo di multipli e grafica di Man Ray pubblicato dal gallerista torinese Luciano Anselmino, con 77 opere e serie riprodotte a colori e una dichiarazione in inglese di Man Ray («Originals Graphics Multiples») che si conclude con le celebri parole «To create is divine, to reproduce is human» qui pubblicate per la prima volta. Luciano Anselmino ebbe una breve ma folgorante carriera di gallerista: aprì a Torino «Il Fauno» nel 1968 avvalendosi dell'opera del critico Janus che restò un suo costante collaboratore; si concentrò sul Surrealismo e sulla Pop Art e fu promotore di Carol Rama; nel 1974 chiuse la sede torinese e aprì l'anno successivo la Galleria Luciano Anselmino in via Manzoni a Milano, rilevata alla sua morte da Alexander Iolas. Con Iolas e Janus lavorò con Man Ray e Warhol, e favorì l'incontro tra i due artisti.…

Original Wraps. Condition: Very Good in Wraps. dj. First Edition/Second Issue. First Edition/Second Issue. Original Wraps. Man Ray's first monograph, this a first edition, second issue, with the 'deuxième édition' replaced title page. Inscribed by Man Ray to noted surrealist filmographer and literary figure, Jean-Claude Carrière [Paris, 1972]. B/W photographs printed in gravure by The Néogravure Company with texts in English and French by Andre Breton, Paul Eluard, Man Ray, Rrose Selavy [Marcel Duchamp] and, Tristan Tzara. Man Ray had hoped that royalties generated from this book would enable him to make a long-overdue trip back to New York. The edition was well received in Europe, but in the United States it was rather poorly recieved. Lewis Mumford wrote in The New Yorker that Man Ray had 'done almost everything with a camera, except use it to take photographs. photographing Calla lilies so that they will look like drawings by a second-rate academician.' It is generally accepted that the publishers recalled unsold copies and then replaced the title pages of all with the 'Second Edition' ["deuxième édition"], leveraging the success in France and giving the impression of greater demand than was present. "Part art, part illustration, [Photography] was meant to be an inventory of his work, a kind of grand promotional catalogue . Man Ray's album was a virtuoso presentation of modern European-style photography. Close-up views, distorted angles, double exposures, night photography, negative prints, rayographs, still lifes, nudes, portraits, fashion photographs, and even a painting . the album was Man Ray's means of presenting his career to a homeland that had rarely seen his work." [Perpetual Motif: The Art of Man Ray, pp. 35-39] "Photographs . was Man Ray's most cogent statement to date, an assembled chorus of statements and images, a summary that was also a valedictory" [Baldwin, Man Ray, American Artist]. Jean-Claude Carrière was a French novelist, screenwriter, and director, acclaimed for his collaborations with filmmakers like Luis Buñuel and his own extensive literary and theatrical works. While the two operated in different artistic spheres and with little overlap in timelines, = both were critical figures in the surrealist movement. Man Ray was primarily active as an artist and photographer in the early to mid-20th century, while Jean-Claude Carrière's career gained prominence later, notably in film and literature. There is no evidence of a collaboration between the two, this presentation inscription from Man Ray to Carrière is perhaps the only evidence they met. A challenging volume to find in good condition generally, quite remarkable as a captured moment in the evolution of the surrealist movement. Light shelf/edge wear, a few tabs/split tender, plastic comb missing top tooth but otherwise perfect, else bright and unmarred.

First Printing of the First Edition. A Near Fine copy in a Very Good plus unclipped dust jacket with light rubbing and wear to the extremities. Man Ray--artist, photographer, writer--was one of the true legends of the Twenties starting out in New York then moving to Paris and eventually finding his way to Hollywood before returning to Paris after the Second World War. He was an important part of the Dadaist and then the Surrealist movements becoming the ultimate bohemian hob-nobbing with all of the influential creative people wherever he was including Picasso, Duchamp, Brancusi, Tristan Tzara and Dali. This straight forward autobiography also addresses his love affairs with some of the most interesting women in Paris and his relationships with others including model and photographer Lee Miller.…

Man Ray's first monograph, a presentation copy inscribed: 'à Marcel Duhamel - / les photos sont des objets à retardement / mais les plus durables - / with love / Man Ray'. ['Photographs are time-delayed objects, but the most durable ones.'] Marcel Duhamel (1900â"1977) was a French actor and screenwriter, and founder of the Sà rie noire imprint published by Gallimard, which issued hardboiled detective thrillers by authors including Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett, Horace McCoy, William R. Burnett, Ed McBain, Chester Himes, Lou Cameron, Jim Thompson, and Peter Cheyney. During the 1920s, Duhamel regularly hosted members of the Surrealist group, including Man Ray, at his house at 54 rue de Château in Montparnasse. It was here, according to Andrà Breton, that they devised the game 'Exquisite Corpse', in which a piece of paper is passed from person to person, folded to conceal each previous contribution. Man Ray had hoped that royalties from the sale of this book would enable him to make a long-overdue trip back to New York. Photographs.Âwas well received in France, but in the United States, the reception was distinctly less enthusiastic. Lewis Mumford wrote inÂThe New YorkerÂthat Man Ray had 'done almost everything with a camera, except use it to take photographs. photographing Calla lilies so that they will look like drawings by a second-rate academician.' Commercially, it was not a success. It is widely suggested that in an attempt to generate sales, the publishers recalled the book and replaced the original title page with one stating 'deuxieÌme eÌdition'. The favourable reception in France also led to the 'second edition' being titled in French with attention drawn to the other contributors:ÂMan Ray. Photographies 1920-1934 Paris avec un portrait par Picasso â" textes de AndreÌ Breton Paul Eluard Rrose SeÌlavy Tristan Tzara â"preÌface par Man Ray.

Facile is a beautiful synthesis of image and text, combining Paul Ãluard's love poems written for his wife Nusch (born Maria Benz) with Man Ray's nude photographs of her. The book shows the range of techniques Man Ray experimented with, including solarisation, double exposures, and superimposed and negative photographs. 'Although Man Ray participated in and produced hundreds of fruitful collaborative works in his life, Facile must be ranked among the most successful. It is a fluent but not at allfacile collaboration between the poet, the photographer, the model and muse, and the publisher Guy Levis Manos' (David Levi Strauss in The Book of 101 Books: Seminal Photographic Books of the Twentieth Century).
