About This Item
2011 large format softcover as pictured. Not a typical museum exhibition catalog, this book contains more than seventy photographs by Man Ray—some never before reproduced—alongside many rarely seen photographs of African art by his European and American contemporaries. The author raises thought-provoking questions about the role photographs played in shaping perceptions of African art and, in turn, how such images led to distinctive modernist viewpoints across racial and geographic boundaries. This copy has been well used but remains very readable. Binding is firm, spine uncreased. Covers, with French flaps, are rubbed with gently curled corners. Owner's name blacked out on FFEP. Text has extensive underlining. No dust jacket. Your purchase helps support our small village library. s AR
