Man Ray

Man Ray
The daily peek

Born in 1890, Emmanuel Rudzitsky is considered one of Dadá movement co founder, allong with Marcel Duchamp and Francis Picabia. Some of his passions were sculpture, film, painting and photography. This last thing was motivated by surrealist visions of the female body, using various photographic techniques as solarization, cropping, burning, etc, to achieve the effects he created.

Recreating lines & making new borns seems easy but I feel like surrealism pursues the complete opposite. Convert something created into something of its purest nature. Something human. Some gift from a God we haven't exactly met yet. That's what art is all about. Poor little word, all transgressed. Anyway, I don't like ready-mades, but I like the way Ray took advantage of the essence of what it means. And that can be seen on the sculptures above. Enjoy and always let yourself be digged by new worlds and unknown pleasures.
