Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. A Near Fine copy in a Very Good plus unclipped dust jacket with light rubbing 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.

Original Wraps. Condizione: Very Good in Wraps. Condizione sovraccoperta: 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. Colour photo-illustrated wraps, plastic comb binding executed by Draeger Frères. 4to. 104pp. Illus. (b/w plates).

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. Der signierte Abzug wurde im Frühjahr 2022 bei Christies in New York für den Rekordpreis von 12.500.000 $ versteigert. R. Gersten war am 18.

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.

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'.
