Man Ray – Photograms
Man Ray (Emmanuel Radnitzky; 1890-1976) was an important American artist associated with both the Dada and Surrealist movements. Ray is remembered for his experimental photographic work, a method called “rayographs’’ which are also known as “photograms”. Students will learn about photography, Man Ray’s influences, and his process. Then they will create their own photograms and experiment with sun paper using collected objects and composition.
** To do this project at home without light sensitive paper student can arange objects and photograph them using a smart phone, scanner or digital camera.
