Description:When American-born Surrealist Man Ray died in 1976, he left behind thousands of photo negatives, mostly portraits taken in his studio after his arrival in Paris in 1921. The Centre Georges Pompidou, which has owned them since the mid-1990s, has duly cataloguedthe collection of negatives and is now in a position to bring out what is an encyclopedic publication in the best sense of the term.
