Description: MAN RAY Portraits 1st Edition Hardcover Photography Book by Terence Pepper 2013 Cover condition as shown. Binding excellent. Text and illustrations clean throughout. As new. Man Ray Portraits is a comprehensive photographic collection published in 2013 by the National Portrait Gallery, featuring over 200 stunning images that chronicle the artist's remarkable journey through portraiture from 1916 to 1968. The book, edited by Terence Pepper with an introduction by Marina Warner, explores Man Ray's evolution as a photographer across multiple locations including New York, Paris, Hollywood, and back to Paris. It showcases his pivotal role in the Dada and Surrealist movements, presenting iconic portraits of legendary artists and cultural figures such as Marcel Duchamp, Pablo Picasso, Jean Cocteau, Gertrude Stein, Kiki de Montparnasse, Lee Miller, Ava Gardner, and Catherine Deneuve. The volume is distinguished by its exploration of Man Ray's innovative photographic techniques, including his groundbreaking solarization process developed with Lee Miller, and his experimental approach to portraiture. Pepper's collection reveals Man Ray's unique artistic philosophy, where he approached photography with the same transformative mindset as painting—idealizing and deforming subjects with creative freedom. The book not only presents his most famous images like the "Noire et Blanche" and "Le Violon d'Ingres" but also includes lesser-known works from his Hollywood period and early color photography experiments, providing a comprehensive view of one of the 20th century's most inventive photographic artists.
