Man's Best Friend

Man's Best Friend by Wegman, William. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780810981744.

Man Ray, artist William Wegmans stunning weimaraner, was called "the Charlie Chaplin of dog photography" by The New York Times and "the ideal post-modern photographers model" by New York magazine. In Wegmans beautiful, vibrantly colored Polaroid photographs, Man Ray dresses as Louis XIV, imitates a bat, poses as Picassos Old Guitarist, and is variously covered with baby powder, flowers, zebra-print fabric, and tinsel. These photographs and Wegmans later work have made Man Ray, Fay Ray, and their family among the best-known models in contemporary art.
