MAN RAY, Work entitled "Obstruction" exhibited at the Musée d'Art Moderne in Paris, 1972 Photo, vintage silver print, captioned (dated label) and stamped on the back Dimensions: 23.8 x 15.2 cm Folds, tear and missing corner, paper slightly curled Note: Photograph of the work Obstruction by Man Ray (1890-1976), a major figure in Surrealism and the avant-garde of the XXᵉ century, exhibited at the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris in 1972. Originally created in 1920, Obstruction is an installation composed of a set of suspended wooden hangers, forming a dense, suspended structure in space. This emblematic work illustrates Man Ray's experimental spirit and his interest in transforming ordinary objects into plastic compositions akin to the ready-made and assemblage. The photograph documents the museum presentation of this work, which has become one of the artist's best-known installations.
