Le lacrime di vetro non bagnano il volto di un manichino, neanche quello in posa per un amante del calibro di Man Ray, mentre il ritratto fotografico dell’eclettico avanguardista, celebre quanto la sua esplorazione del confine tra reale e irreale, arte e vita, continua a sfidare il significato della fotografia still-life, arricchendo collezioni private e mostre pubbliche come “The Radical Eye Modernist Photography from The Sir Elton John Collection”.
