1918ref. 1910Lausanne, Imprimeries Réunies, 1918. Un volume in-8 (24 x 16 cm), 78 pages, broché sous couverture bleutée imprimée sur le premier plat. ÉDITION ORIGINALE. 51 poèmes illustrés de 18 dessins-calligrammes mécaniques en hors-texte reproduits en noir. Tirage unique sur vélin bouffant ivoire non numéroté. Le recueil est "terminé à Gstaad, le 5 avril 1918". Note historique : Francis Picabia (1879-1953) rencontre en 1917 à Paris Germaine Everling qui allait devenir pendant plus de quinze ans sa compagne dévouée. Au cours d'un bref voyage qu'ils effectuent ensemble aux Martigues, il écrit les premiers poèmes de ce qui allait devenir "La fille née sans mère", titre d'un dessin exécuté à New York en 1913. Puis au mois de février 1918, il part pour Lausanne avec sa femme (Gabrielle Buffet) pour y consulter un neurologue de renom; il y est bientôt rejoint par sa maîtresse. Il publie alors l'ouvrage grâce auquel il rencontre Tristan Tzara et le groupe Dada de Zurich. "La fille née sans mère" est, au même titre que "La Mariée" de Marcel Duchamp une machine célibataire ; l'œuvre est parallèle au "grand verre" de Duchamp, "La Mariée", est accompagnée par ses notes, "à la manière" [dit Duchamp], "d'un catalogue de grand magasin où l'image et le texte ne font qu'un tout". Rappelons que l'activité proprement littéraire de Picabia à l'époque de 391, est toute entière placée sous le signe de la mécanique; obsédé par la machine, fille née sans mère du cerveau de l'homme, Picabia n'aura de cesse de lui faire produire, en 1918, l'œuvre ambivalente parfaite comprenant dix-huit dessins et cinquante et un poèmes "équivalents". Les dessins, présentant des mécanismes étranges aux titres troublants de "Machine de bons mots", "Machine à idées actuelles dans l'amour", etc., ne sont pas sans évoquer l'intrigante "Mariée mise à nu" de Marcel Duchamp. (Sanouillet 391 p. 32; Picabia Mnam p. 449 reproduit).

Préface d'André Breton intitulée ""Convulsionnaires"" composée d'aphorismes et imprimée sur papier vélin crème. Illustrée de 12 photographies légendées par Man Ray imprimées sur papier couché jaune paille. Couverture bleu Klein parfaitement conservée sous chemise noire à fenêtre et à un rabat. Exemplaire en superbe état de ce célèbre ""livre de dialogues"" surréaliste de Man Ray préfacé par André Breton. ""Dans cet ouvrage surréaliste il ny a donc pas seulement un dialogue surprenant et énigmatique entre les photographies et leurs légendes mais aussi entre les artistes André Breton et Man Ray. . Ce quil Man Ray veut cest créer du chaos psychique et aviver limagination du lecteur-spectateur. Dans ce livre de dialogue le photographe apparaît comme une lanterne magique qui accentue lénigme en léclairant."" Wouter Marinissen La lanterne magique: Man Ray et léclairage de lénigme dans La Photographie nest pas lart Le magicien-photographe rassemble ici douze chefs-d'oeuvre parmi lesquels figurent de saisissants portraits féminins répondant aux désirs surréalistes de Breton dans la préface dont celui de se transformer en femme : ""Je voudrais pouvoir changer de sexe comme de chemise"". Le Sex-Appeal tout en transparences ""l'une des photographies préférées de Man Ray selon le Musée national d'Art Moderne s'accompagne de visages énigmatiques et glamour Miriam Hopkins et Plein air artistique qui s'oppose à la photographie Vide-air utilitaire représentant l'Empire State Building. Plusieurs clichés naissent de la luminosité même comme son Cahier acheté à un mendiant combinant prise de vue solarisée et photogramme inversé :""Le gros plan sur le carnet dégageant de leur contexte et de toute échelle de mesure les motifs réticulés du papier de la reliure oblige à une autre perception de l'objet : vue au microscope ou nébuleuse lointaine il prend une dimension sur-réelle par le simple fait du cadrage et du grossissement."" Bibliothèque nationale de France. D'autres vues mettant en scène des animaux aux légendes contradictoires et provocantes éveillent le psyché du spectacteur : la chaotique colonie de fourmis intitulée Cerveau bien ordonné l'accouplement de grenouilles par photomontage qui devient Quand la nature fait des machines et la rayographie d'une chauve-souris proclamant même avec arrogance sa nature reproductible et commerciale dans son titre Photographie intégrale et cent pour cent automatique. La série s'achève avec le très surréaliste autoportrait du buste de Man Ray affublé de lunettes-grille intitulé Dans les yeux des autres : ""Cela signifie-t-il que Man Ray considère ce portrait à lunettes comme ce qu'il donne à voir à autrui et qui constitue un double masque puisqu'il est inspiré d'un masque de plâtre et que les yeux sont rendus quasiment invisibles par un accessoire aussi spectaculaire "" Agnès Vinas. Précieux manifeste de Man Ray anticonformiste oscillant entre apologie et dérision dont le titre ironique La Photographie n'est pas l'art introduit l'uvre d'un artiste qui a contribué à établir la photographie comme un art.

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 316 pages ; 522 illustrations including 30 in color. -- with a bonus offer--; When American-born Surrealist Man Ray died in 1976 he left behind thousands of photo negatives mostly portraits taken in his studio after his arrival in Paris in 1921. The Centre Georges Pompidou which has owned them since the mid-1990s has duly catalogued the collection of negatives and is now in a position to bring out what is an encyclopedic publication in the best sense of the term. It attests both to Man Ray s ability as a portrait photographer and to the quality of his archive as a monument to cultural history. The catalog features 500 portraits each of which is explained in a short commentary. Since Man Ray's clientele was made up of members of Dadaist and Surrealist circles of artists and painters of writers and US emigrants of the Lost Generation of aristocrats and paragons of the worlds of fashion and theater the book is at the same time a marvelous Who's Who and an indispensable reference work for a broad range of different historians and scholars of the 20th century. . 2011. 3829605404 .

Man Ray 1890-1976 was a photographer painter and creator of objects experimental films and images which were at times enigmatic. This catalog which presents more than 200 works and compares and contrasts images with biographical details is divided into three main sections: Man Ray’s formative years spent between New York and an artists’ colony in Ridgefield New Jersey; the Paris period; and the period spent between Hollywood and Paris France-the city he ultimately chose to adopt as his home. The publication describes the creation of some of his most famous pieces and the motifs-very often of females-that inspired the works. Man Ray’s life was marked by a succession of love affairs with famous and intriguing women and this catalog dedicates several sections to this topic. The book also deals with the themes permeating Man Ray’s work throughout the years such as his passion for chess the relationship between reality and illusion and experimental photography and film. Comparisons are also made with the works of some of the most important artists of the twentieth century such as Pablo Picasso Marcel Duchamp Constantin Brancusi Jean Arp and Francis Picabia. . 2011. 8857209741 .

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 200 pages; 175 illustrations. -- with a bonus offer--; This groundbreaking analysis spotlights a select group of Man Ray’s photographs within the context of modernist photographic history and the “discovery” of African art by the early twentieth-century avant-garde. Featuring more than seventy photographs by Man Ray—some never before reproduced—alongside many rarely seen photographs of African art by his European and American contemporaries Man Ray African Art and the Modernist Lens uncovers a virtually unknown chapter in both the inventive activities of this celebrated artist and in this overlooked facet of photographic history. Meticulously researched and compellingly presented Wendy A. Grossman raises thought-provoking questions about the role photographs played in shaping perceptions of African art and in turn how such images led to distinctive modernist viewpoints across racial and geographic boundaries. Particularly notable is the treatment of the African pieces both as integral components of the modernist history to which they contributed and as elucidated by original scholarship by African art experts as objects with their own independent cultural histories. Revealing a more complex engagement with African art by Man Ray and his contemporaries than has been previously known Grossman provides a rich and nuanced study that makes an important addition to our understanding of critical issues in modernism that continue to influence the way we see African art today. With an essay by Ian Walker and additional contributions by Yaëlle Biro Poul Mørk Rainer Stamm and Tomás Winter. Concordance of African objects edited by Letty Wilson Bonnell. . 2009. 081667017X .

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." -- with a bonus offer--; New Edited and preface by John P. Jacob. Introduction by Merry A.
