Pat Kirkham: The Eameses and California | TALK (EN)Charles and Ray Eames helped shape an era that transformed the west coast of the United States into a creative fulcrum and magnet for many creative figures in the arts and media. This is where Hollywood’s dream factories were located, where many Pop artists worked, and where modern, expansive villas gave expression to the cosmopolitan lifestyle of an entire generation. Pat Kirkham is an acclaimed expert on the Eameses. In her lecture she talks about the many connections between this design duo and the cultural cosmos of the American west coast – be it their collaboration with Billy Wilder or their contributions to the legendary Case Study Houses, which became icons of modern architecture.
