拍品專文

Fisherman's Idol was cast between 1972-1973 after the original object, since disintegrated, made of fishermen's cork floats that Man Ray picked up whilst walking on a beach in Biarritz in 1926. When assembled, the pieces of cork created a sculpture in the form of a 'Fisherman's Idol'. Man Ray liked the character of the object so much that he included it in his film Emak Bakia of 1926 where it was seen rotating and multiplying.

This bronze edition was authorised and created by the Galerie Françoise Tournié and Timothy Baum.
