Ray, Man (Emmanuel Radnitzky) (American/French, 1890-1976), Untitled Print from the De l'origine d'especes par voie de selection irrationnelle (On the Origin of Species as a Process of Irrational Selection) Portfolio, 1971, color lithograph on Arches wove paper, signed and editioned E. A. in pencil to lower margin, image 16.25 x 12.5 inches, full sheet 18.75 x 14.25 inches, framed 27 x 21 inches. Printed by Mourlot, Paris and published by Leon Amiel, New York, and XXe Siecle, Paris. Steve says: Man Ray has always been an idol of mine. Like him, I found my true self in the streets and hearts of Paris. Like him, I experimented with photography and art and Dada and Surrealism. Unlike him, I cannot be considered one of the founders of Modern Art, along with his friend Marcel Duchamp. But, I have worked with Marion Meyer, his art dealer, curator and friend and Francis Naumann, who has written books about him. Through them I have gained much insight into his prints, sculptures, drawings and paintings.
