Man Ray

Man Ray (1890–1976) was the defining artist of Dada and Surrealism — a photographer, painter, and filmmaker whose restless creativity extended into furniture and objects of everyday life. Through a licensing partnership with Zurich-based IC Design, a curated selection of Man Ray's most iconic design works have been re-released as licensed re-editions, including his famous chess set, originally designed in the 1920s. These are not mere reproductions — they are faithful re-editions produced with contemporary craft standards and the endorsement of Man Ray's estate. For collectors and design enthusiasts, owning a Man Ray piece is owning a fragment of art history. MetropolitanDecor.com carries Man Ray re-editions as an authorized retailer.
