Background information

"An unusual, as yet unpublished series of b/w photos, which the art historian Herbert Molderings created in the spring of 1979 in the Parisian studio of Man RAY.

Content

With an eye for detail, Herbert Molderings captured the everyday artistic world and those objects that Man RAY collected or produced himself and created to be still life-like composed arrangements in his studio. In this inspiring environment of boxes, bowls, tools and cutlery, of figures, masks, dolls and always own works, the artist's imaginative cosmos reveals itself in an impressive manner."
