Man Ray in his Paris Studio

Man Ray (born Emmanuel Radnitzky; 1890 –1976) was an American visual artist who spent most of his career in Paris. 

He was a significant contributor to the Dada and Surrealist movements, although his ties to each were informal. 

He produced major works in a variety of media but considered himself a painter above all. He was best known for his pioneering photography, and he was a renowned fashion and portrait photographer. 

Man Ray is also noted for his work with photograms, which he called "rayographs" in reference to himself.
