"Shortly after his arrival in Paris in July 1921, Man Ray (1890-1976)-the pseudonym
of Emmanuel Radnitzky-embarked on a sustained campaign to document the city's international
avant-garde in a series of remarkable portraits that established his reputation as
one of the leading photographers of his era. Man Ray's subjects included cultural
luminaries such as Berenice Abbott, Andre Breton, Jean Cocteau, Marcel Duchamp, Ernest
Hemingway, Miriam Hopkins, Aldous Huxley, James Joyce, Lee Miller, Meret Oppenheim,
Pablo Picasso, Alice Prin (Kiki de Montparnasse), Elsa Schiaparelli, Erik Satie, and
Gertrude Stein. As this lavishly illustrated publication demonstrates, Man Ray's portraits
went beyond recording the mere outward appearance of the person depicted and aimed
instead to capture the essence of his sitters as creative individuals, as well as
the collective nature and character of Les Annees folles (the crazy years) of Paris
between the two world wars, when the city became famous the world over as a powerful
and evocative symbol of artistic freedom and daring experimentation."--Provided by
