Accompanying a major exhibition at Palazzo Reale, “Shapes of Light” traces the radical career of Man Ray (1890–1976), the Surrealist master who elevated photography to a high art form. The volume features thematic chapters on his most iconic techniques, including rayographs and solarizations, alongside his famous portraits of muses like Kiki de Montparnasse and Lee Miller. It also presents rarely seen sketches and ephemera that reveal his process of “stringent creative freedom.” Published by Silvana Editoriale, the book is a comprehensive look at how Man Ray used light as a tactile medium to bridge the gap between reality and the subconscious.
