Man Ray Chess Set Faire Designed by Li ZanwenThis design was inspired by Man Ray's lifelong friendship with avid chess player and fellow artist Marcel Duchamp. In this re edition of the 1920s Wooden Chess Set, a metal version of which is in the MoMA collection, Man Ray translates traditional chess pieces in geometric forms. Chess set and board sold separately. Made in Germany from solid beechwood with clear lacquered and black painted finishes; wool felt pads.
