Title: May Ray Photographs 1920-1934 By: A.D. Coleman Published by: East River Press, New York Year: 1975
Softcover edition, a preprint of the original 1934 Paris first edition Man Ray, the artist who was contemporary of Marcel Duchamp, Jean Arp and countless French Dada artist of the early 20th c. Man Ray moved to Paris before the war where is painting career was growing but it would be his photography that brought his fame and recognition. His photographs had a sense or sensuality and that carnal appeal to his mages. He use of experimentation of the photography showcased an artist who wanted more out the art form. Many of the his fashion photography was shot for Harper s but when he applied alternative techniques such as solarization and laying images on photo paper and exposing them, calling them Rayographs, he moved photography into a new area of art. This book is a 1970 s reprint of the 1934 book and each of the images are printed with a technique that lends itself to his photos. The grain and soft printing shows the beauty in every one of the images, a great book that uses a long lost mechanical printing technique.
