Born in Philadelphia in 1890, Man Ray settled in Paris in 1921 to join the Dada movement. He was a radically experimental artist of genius who won immense critical acclaim for his photographic work. In the 1920's, Man Ray directed four films which, although they are little known to the general public, made him a major figure in avant-garde cinema. His film making was as radical as his pictures and his objects.

This DVD, published by the Centre Pompidou, includes a number of films by Man Ray and a 12 page booklet.
