Man Ray

A retrospective look at the ways in which Man Ray explored the link between object, vision, and thought using every medium and technique. Through a juxtaposition of paintings, drawings, collages, objects, photographs, films and books, the exhibition presents Man Ray's cross-aesthetic and conceptual ambit, guiding us through the artist's ideas as they are expressed in a variety of material guises. American Man Ray (1890-1976) was not only an important influence of both Dadaism and surrealism, but also switched between all the styles of modern art and actively worked in both Europe and the US. The exhibition, consisting of over one hundred works, covers photography, films, sketches, objects, paintings, graphics and sculptures. Exhibition: Mjellby Konstmuseum, Halmstad, Sweden (15.06-15.09.2013).
