Man Ray, the Surrealist photographer, was born Emmanuel Radnitzky. His career is distinctive for the success he achieved in both the United States and Europe. Ray’s art spanned painting, sculpture, film, prints and poetry, and in his long career, he worked in styles influenced by Cubism, Futurism, Dada and Surrealism. He also successfully navigated the worlds of commercial and fine art and became a sought-after fashion photographer. Ray is perhaps most remembered for his photographs of the interwar years, in particular the camera-less pictures he called "Rayographs." Shop a variety of Man Ray art on 1stDibs.
