Born Emmanuel Radnitzky in Philadelphia in 1890, Man Ray became one of the towering figures of both the Dada and Surrealist movements, immortalising his era through groundbreaking works such as the Rayograph and iconic portraits of Paris's most celebrated intellectuals, artists, and muses.\n\nPublished by the prestigious Ediciones Polígrafa, this volume presents a richly curated selection of his most celebrated photographs, objects, and paintings, chronicling a career that permanently altered the course of modern art. Man Ray's work argues — with every shadowed nude, every dreamlike assemblage — that art must provoke, disorient, and seduce in equal measure. His mastery of light and form, combined with an irreverent wit, made him the supreme visual poet of the twentieth-century avant-garde. Whether you are a seasoned collector or a newcomer to Surrealism, this volume will leave you questioning where reality ends and imagination begins.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49210239418587,"sku":"2026200013935-SECONDHAND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/0ca95dbc-57f7-481d-8ecd-da6c33f9f6fa.png?v=1788267858","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200013935-secondhand-man-ray","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
