Item description from seller

First edition. Very Good+ paperback with light shelf wear, light rubbing to the tips, and a short light wrinkle to the front cover. BOOKS SHIP THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY, WRAPPED IN PADDING, IN A BOX. "Man Ray (1890-1976) and L. Fritz Gruber (1908-2005) nurtured a professional and personal friendship for more than 20 years, enjoying that particular closeness that can sometimes arise between artist and connoisseur. . With an unsurpassed scholarly knowledge of Man Ray's work, over the course of several decades Gruber and his wife Renate put together the collection that is the basis of this book. In addition to Man Ray's photographs, sculptural work and objects, the book includes extensive correspondence between Man Ray and Gruber and several essays on their association. Against this broadly-drawn backdrop, a moving personal picture emerges of the Grubers' diligent commitment to the work of this American artist. This volume provides many new insights on Man Ray, particularly within the final creative phase of his life." The catalogue for an exhibition of work by Man Ray, held at Die Photographische Sammlung/SK-Stiftung Kultur, Cologne, May 16 - August 31 2008. Essays by Claudia Schubert, Christoph Schaden, Herbert Molderings, Renate Gruber; foreword by Gabriele Conrath-Scholl. 216 pages; over 300 color and b&w plates and text illustrations; 8.5 x 12.5 inches. Appendices. Text in English and German.…
