Surrealism-as it had been before the war-was no longer King. Surrealist ideology had been superseded by Existentialism (Jean-Paul Sartre now commanded the most attention, not André Breton). And in the art world a source of bewilderment for Man Ray and various others in his group, Surrealist imagery suddenly took a back seat to Abstraction.
“I sought a new technique that would be more automatic as when a seed of a sapling is planted and the forces of nature are counted on to do the rest.”
Man Ray
1963
