Overview: Dada, one of the crucially
significant movements of the historical avant-garde, was born in
the heart ofEurope in the midst of World War I. In the wake of
that brutal conflict, Dadaists raucously challenged tradition,
and art-making was changed forever.
The most comprehensive museum exhibition of Dada art ever mounted in the United
States, Dada features painting, sculpture, photography, film, collage, and
readymades emerging in six cities: Zurich, Berlin, Hannover, Cologne, New York,
and Paris. The exhibition presents many of the most influential figures in
the history of modernism, as well as others less known, including Tristan Tzara,
Hans Arp, Sophie Taeuber, Hans Richter, Hannah Höch, Raoul Hausmann, George
Grosz, John Heartfield, Kurt Schwitters, Max Ernst, Francis Picabia, Man Ray,
and Marcel Duchamp.
Man Ray in
the Age of Electricity
Heckscher
Museum of Art , Huntington NY
May 20, 2006 - August 13, 2006
Electricity came into widespread use in the first decades of
the twentieth century revolutionizing all aspects of society. Individuals in
vastly different fields started to develop ways to employ this remarkable new
resource. In the case of the Dada and Surrealist artist Man Ray (1890-1976),
he used electricity in the 1920s and later in two new types of photographs:
solarized images and rayographs. Solarized images were made by turning the
electric lights on briefly in the darkroom as the negatives or photographs
developed, creating a halo effect around the person or object portrayed. An
ethereal, other-worldly feeling is projected. Rayographs were created by placing
objects on light-sensitive paper and turning on the lights. The images look
like x-rays. These two new art forms were so original, startling and compelling
that they continue to amaze viewers today. This exhibition will focus on Man
Ray’s solarized images and rayographs. Approximately 40 to 45 photographs
will be presented in this special exhibition. A scholarly brochure will accompany
the show. The exhibition runs from May 20 to August 13, 2006.
