Happy New Year from ARTBOOK | D.A.P.!

Curtis Moffat: Silver Society is the first book ever published on the American Modernist who studied photography with Man Ray in Paris before taking the London society world by storm in the roaring twenties. A friend and colleague of many of the most influential figures of the pre-war avant-garde, including Tristan Tzara, Cecil Beaton, Jean Cocteau, Tallulah Bankhead and Ezra Pound, Moffat produced experimental abstract photographs in black-and-white and in color, in addition to portraits of "bright young things" like the iconoclastic heiress and flamboyant muse, Nancy Cunard, pictured here circa 1925.
