Man Ray
Cadeau

1921

About the Item

Man Ray was a American avant-garde artist and leading figure in the Dada and Surrealist movements. Conceived in 1921, Cadeau is from an edition of 5000, each signed and numbered with a certificate. The edition was produced until 1974. Cadeau is an icon of the surrealist movement. It consists of an everyday continental flat iron, transformed into a non functional, disturbing object by the addition of a single row of fourteen nails. the nails are made of copper and the type used in making tapestries. The Dada and Surrealist movements showed the power within an object to escape the rule of logic and conventional identification of words and objects.
