Original exhibition catalogue representing a full range of Man Ray’s work, boldly signed by Ray on the title page.

According to Ray, “this work cannot be considered experimental. The pursuit of pleasure, my guiding motive, is not a science. Or, as I have previously stated, the desire, not the necessity is the stimulant.” This exhibition mounted 300 Man Ray works of art: paintings, drawings, sculptures, and photographs, drawn from 54 collections around the world.

Light embrowning to margins only. Minor crease to bottom corner. An about-fine copy.
