Though many have never heard her name, Alice Prin - Kiki de
Montparnasse - was the icon of 1920s Paris. She captivated as a
ground-breaking nightclub performer, wrote a bestselling memoir,
sold out exhibitions of her paintings, and shared drinks and ideas
with the likes of Pablo Picasso, Peggy Guggenheim, and Marcel
Duchamp. She also shepherded along the career of a then-unknown
American photographer: Man Ray.
Following Kiki in the years between 1921 and 1929, when she lived
and worked with Man Ray, Kiki Man Ray charts their complicated
entanglement and reveals how Man Ray - always the unabashed
careerist - went on to become one of the most famous photographers
of the twentieth century, enjoying wealth and prestige, while
Kiki's legacy was lost.
But this isn't a story of an overbearing male genius and his
defeated muse. During the 1920s it was Kiki, not Man Ray, who was
the brighter of the two rising stars and a powerful figure among
the close-knit community of models, painters, writers and cafe
wastrels who made their homes in gritty Montparnasse. Following the
couple as they created art, struggled for power and competed for
fame, Kiki Man Ray illuminates for the first time Kiki's seminal
influence on the culture of 1920s Paris, and challenges ideas about
artists and muses, and the lines separating the two.
