Das 1957, im Jahr des Starts von Sputnik 1, konzipierte Astrolabium zelebriert die künstlerische Innovation durch ein außergewöhnliches Werk, das Kunst mit Geometrie, Mathematik und Wissenschaft verschmilzt. Durch eine komplexe Anordnung von hölzernen Halbkreisen und Kreisen, die sich kunstvoll um eine Verkleinerungslinse drehen, kehrt Man Ray die Funktion dieses astronomischen Instruments um. Anstatt die exakte Höhe der Sterne zu messen, gibt sein eigenes Astrolabium dem Betrachter eine irreführende Perspektive des Raums, in dem er steht. Durch den geschickten Einsatz der optischen Täuschung, einer für den Künstler typischen Technik, präsentiert Man Ray eine reduzierte Vision seiner eigenen Galaxie, in der das logische Element seines Werks stattdessen seine subjektive Natur ist.

Man Ray,
1890 Philadelphia – 1976 Paris

ASTROLABE
Height: 64.5 cm.
Signed, titled, and inscribed “IT´S a small world” (Hang at eye level, look through glass) and numbered “1/10”.

Created in 1957, the year Sputnik 1 was launched, the astrolabe celebrates artistic innovation through an extraordinary work that fuses art with geometry, mathematics, and science. Man Ray reverses the function of this astronomical instrument through a complex arrangement of wooden semicircles and circles artfully revolving around a reduction lens. Instead of measuring the exact height of the stars, his own astrolabe gives the viewer a misleading perspective of the space they are standing in. Through the skilful use of optical illusion, a technique typical for the artist, Man Ray presents a reduced vision of his own galaxy, in which the logical element of his work is its subjective nature instead.
