1937rif. 90937GLM 1937. Fine. GLM 1937 16.2 x 25.2 cm En feuilles ENGLISH DESCRIPTION ON DEMAND Edition originale pour laquelle il n'a pas été tiré de grands papiers. 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.

Les mains libres is the second collaborative work between Man Ray a pioneer of the Surrealist movement and Paul Eluard poet and one of the movement's founders. During the 1930s Man Ray made numerous drawings in Paris and the South of France. He shared them with Eluard who requested to keep them temporarily. Adhering to the Surrealist tradition the poet 'illustrates' the images not the opposite: upon Man Ray's return Eluard had paired each drawing with a poem. This collaboration resulted in the publication of Les mains libres featuring fifty-four illustrations by Man Ray facing as many poems by Eluard and three appendices 'Sade' 'Portraits' and 'Details' which include Man Ray's portraits of Pablo Picasso Andre Breton and Eluard. Provenance: This copy was presented by Eluard to the writer Goerge Mouton. Connected to Surrealist circles in the 1930s Mouton was a member of the Contre-Attaque group led by Georges Bataille and Andre Breton during 1935-1936. unknown
