Reality is fabricated out of desire.
Man Ray
Image
An original is a creation motivated by desire.
Man Ray
Image
One of the satisfactions of a genius is his will-power and obstinacy.
Man Ray

There is no progress in art, any more than there is progress in making love.
Man Ray
Image
Cut out the eye from a photograph of one who has been loved but is seen no more. Attach the eye to the pendulum of a metronome and regulate the weight to suit the tempo desired. Keep going to the limit of endurance. With a hammer well-aimed, try to destroy the whole at a single blow.

Lipstick is the red badge of courage.

I have been accused of being a joker. But the most successful art to me involves humor.
Man Ray

It has never been my object to record my dreams, just the determination to realize them.
Man Ray
Image
I would photograph an idea rather than an object, a dream rather than an idea.
Man Ray
Image
A camera alone does not make a picture. To make a picture you need a camera, a photographer and above all a subject. It is the subject that determines the interest of the photograph.
Man Ray
Image
The complicated engines manufactured by men demand, if one really wants to use them, much calm. Ever since our love for machines replaced the love we used to have for our fellow man, catastrophes proceed to increase.
Man Ray
Image
Personally, I have always preferred inspiration to information.
Man Ray
Image
Is photography an art? There is no point in trying to find out if it is an art. Art is old-fashioned. We need something else.
Man Ray
Image
I do not photograph nature. I photograph my visions.
Man Ray
Image
l photograph what l do not wish to paint and l paint that which l cannot photograph.
Man Ray
Image
I paint when I cannot photograph.
Man Ray
Image
Nature does not create works of art. It is we, and the faculty of interpretation peculiar to the human mind, that see art.
Man Ray
Image
I photograph the things that I do not wish to paint, the things which already have an existence.
