Resumen del Libro

As I recall discovering this book of photographs, I remember the sense of beauty and mystery that remains undiminished almost seventy years after its original publication. On a formal plane, one can easily understand how Man Ray manipulated the optics of the camera, juxtaposing near and far, object against object, space against object, and tactile against transparent. It is also apparent how he deliberately manipulated the process of photographic printmaking, using unusual tones of black, white, and gray to transform content into spaces, forms and surfaces. However, it is not simply how Man Ray manipulated the technical processes that is significant. What is important is how the images function visually, and how the photograph bridges or breaks the gap between what is perceived and/or imagined.

1900: Tercera parte. El circo y el cinematógrafo

Entre 1870 y 1930 el circo fue el espectáculo más atractivo y popular en México. A diferencia de otras diversiones públicas, sorprendió y deleitó a las familias ricas, medianas y pobres. Las compañías de circo rompían con la rutina diaria del espectador común, pues realizaban proezas y desplegaban habilidades extraordinarias: presentaban a hombres que saltaban 16 caballos en fila, devoraban fuego, se elevaban en globos aerostáticos, eran lanzados por un cañón, o bien, mostraban a mujeres envueltas en serpientes, a elefantes que giraban 360 grados parados sobre una sola de sus...
