| Painter, photographer, and film-maker, born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. He studied art in New York City, became a major figure in the development of Modernism, and co-founder of the New York Dadaist movement. He experimented with new techniques in painting and photography, became interested in filming, and in France made Surrealist films such as Anemic Cinema (1924) with Marcel Duchamp. During the 1930s he published and exhibited photographs and rayographs (photographic montages made without a camera). |
