| 1942 | MAN RAY [A.K.A. Emmanuel Radnitzky] Broken Chair With Stump And Ballet Shoes Source: J.Paul Getty Museum |
Created for the June 1943 cover of the New York journal View, this composition of disparate elements encourages the viewer to invent his own narrative. A foreboding quality, created with shadows, solarization, and the inexplicable juxtaposition of abandoned satin dance shoes and a broken chair under a gnarled tree stump, pervades the picture.[J.Paul Getty Museum]
