A notable chronicler of the international avant-garde, Man Ray's portraits included those of Nancy Cunard, Lee Miller, Yves Tanguy and Marcel Duchamp. Many of his nude studies and still lives have now become iconic images in their own right. This monograph ...             Man Ray (TASCHEN Icons Series)1 review Taschen, 2001 Good, but not an introduction for beginners This small book is part of a vague series called Icons by Taschen. They are a dim reflection on some of their larger works. This book is definitely not for beginners, not meant to be an introduction to Man Ray. However, it has some value for people familiar with Man Ray, Andre Breton and/or Dada. Think of it as material for art history or food for thought about the time. Do yourself a favor ...             Edward Weston (TASCHEN Icons Series). Manfred.

His sitters are anonymous, described simply by their occupation, with the stories of their lives, hard or soft, written on their faces.
