Ray, Man (Emmanuel Radnitzky) (American/French, 1890-1976), Priapus, mid-1970s, marble sculpture multiple consisting of a central cylindrical element and 3 circular ones, etched signature and numbered 134/500 at bottom of central element, 20.5 inches tall when put together. 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.
