Dustjacket with slightest trace of use; like new. Overall fantastic condition! Collector`s copy! "Locked in enormous bank vaults and largely removed from public scrutiny for more than a decade, the little known collection of the Man Ray Trust comprises more than 4,000 works by Man Ray. The 320 photographs and drawings selected for this publication are among the rarest of Man Ray`s works, and will be a revelation to even his most devoted admirers. At the core of Man Ray: Trees + Flowers - Insects Animals is a series of landscape photographs made by Man Ray from the 1920s through the 1950s, many of which bear the distinct influence of Eugène Atget. With subjects including castles and ruined buildings, street scenes, and the objects from which he drew inspiration for other artworks, the photographs and drawings in this book represent an intermediary step in Man Ray`s creative process. The title of the series, Trees + Flowers - Insects Animals, was discovered by the editor scrawled across the backside of a photograph, and provides a key to this most unusual collection. These photographs function as a subject index to the themes and motifs that Man Ray employed in his better known works. They are, on the one hand, a record of his travels and observations in Europe and the United States. On the other hand, they are the relic of a moment preserved by Man Ray for later use and interpretation." (from the publisher) "Man Ray was born Emmanuel Radnitzky in Philadelphia, 1890. He spent most of his working life in Paris, and he was a significant contributor to both Dadaism and Surrealism, though his ties to both were informal. Best known as a photographer, Man Ray produced major works in a variety of media and considered himself a painter above all. Man Ray died in 1976. While appreciation for his work beyond photography was slow in coming during his lifetime, especially in the United States, Man Ray`s reputation has grown steadily in the decades since. In 1999, ArtNews magazine named Man Ray one of the 25 most influential artists of the 20th century, citing his groundbreaking photography as well as his explorations of film, painting, sculpture, collage, assemblage, and prototypes of what would eventually be called performance art and conceptual art."

Jacob. Mit einer Einleitung von Merry A. Foresta. Text in englischer Sprache. Zustand: Buch innen und aussen neu, ungelesen, verlagsfrisch. Der Schutzumschlag mit leichtesten Gebrauchsspuren; wie neu. Insgesamt von hervorragender Erhaltung! Sammler-Exemplar! Der Man Ray Trust, der mehr als 4.000 Werke des legendären Fotografen beherbergt, hat seine Sammlung für mehr als zehn Jahre vor der Öffentlichkeit verschlossen. So werden die 320 seltenen Fotografien und Zeichnungen in diesem Band zum ersten Mal präsentiert. Im Kern der Publikation steht eine Reihe von Landschaftsaufnahmen, die zwischen den 1920ern und 1950ern entstanden sind. In ihnen wird der immense Einfluss, den Eugène Atget auf Man Rays frühe Werke ausübte, mehr als deutlich. Die Bilder von Burgen, Ruinen, Straßenszenen und Objekten entstanden zu einem Zeitpunkt, an dem sich Man Ray künstlerisch emanzipierte. Dieser kreative Prozess lässt sich anhand der hier gezeigten Fotografien verfolgen. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 1600.
