Philadelphia-born Man Ray (1890-1976) was an American visual artist who was ranked among the top 25 most influential artists of the 20th century. Having played a major, but informal, role in the Dada and Surrealist movements, he created major works in a variety of media—from film and photography to collage and objet d’art—he prided himself foremost as a painter. Man Ray the person was mirthful and likeable, claiming friendship with individuals with highly diverse and divergent views. Featuring Man Ray pieces in the Tokyo Fuji Art Museum collection along with those on loan from renowned Man Ray collector Teruo Ishihara, the exhibition explores the life and legacy of the artistic genius as well as his endearing humanity.
