拍品专文

The plaster model depicted in this photograph shows a seemingly arbitrary cluster of cubic forms. In fact, it depicts a unique form in which no shapes overlap. The symmetry is fixated within one central point—a 'space-tiling crystalline structure due to Schoenflies', (Man Ray Human Equations, p. 105). This image served as the inspiration for Man Ray's painting The Tempest.
