An indefatigable experimenter who participated in the Cubist, Dadaist and Surrealist art movements, Man Ray (1890-1976) created a new photographic art that emphasized chance effects and juxtapositions. Ray used solarization, grain enlargement and cameraless prints (called "Rayographs") -- made by placing objects directly on photographic paper and exposing them to light.
