Man Ray for Gavina Pair of Table Lamps mod. La lune sous le chapeau
-
Description
Man Ray was an American visual artist who spent most of his career in Paris.
Man Ray's career is distinctive above all for the success he achieved in both the United States and Europe. His art spanned painting, sculpture, film, prints and poetry, and in his long career he worked in styles influenced by Cubism, Futurism, Dada and Surrealism. He also successfully navigated the worlds of commercial and fine art, and came to be a sought-after fashion photographer. He is perhaps most remembered for his photographs of the inter-war years, in particular the camera-less pictures he called 'Rayographs', but he always regarded himself first and foremost as a painter.
Here we have Pair of Table Lamps mod. La lune sous le chapeau with metal structure and cardboard canvas light diffuser. Designed by Man Ray in collaboration with Gavina.
The light system can be rewired to US standards upon request. -
