More information

Kertész bild av den ungerska dansaren Magda Förstner har flera dadaistiska och surrealistiska drag. Perspektivet gör att hennes onaturliga position blir extra skulptural, nästan förvriden, en form som går igen i den vita skulpturens linjer och i den lilla tavlan på väggen. Detta är en av André Kertész mest kända bilder och motivet ingår bland annat i samlingarna på MoMA och The J. Paul Getty Museum.
