And this is how we get to the end - I gave the privilege of being the closing entry to a great modernist, Man Ray and one of his surrealist photographies.
Why this particular photography is so interesting to me? It is simply disturbing. It moves this parts of a human soul, which fears instinctively the unknown and supernatural. It was made back in the times when photography was a craft, and such a blurry, moved picture like Man Ray's, was considered as a mistake, a wasted film, but this is exactly what I find most attrarctive in it. This simple disobeying of the rules caused eyes appearing on photography twice - and they have different kind of expression, which could remind of a people, having two faces or a revealing someone's long worn mask.
What amazes me most is that this photography which is just a moved take, has a massive power of expression, because the artists choose it not to be a detailed, normal portrait - he just simply wrenched the camera, knowingly stepping out of the schematic thinking.
