Eames & Hollywood

Armed with teir cameras, from the 1950s onwards, the couple paid frequent visits to the film shoots of their friend, director Billy Wilder. From Hollywood studios to on-location shoots, they took thousands of photographs of actors and actresses, extras, technicians and equipment. Eames & Hollywood presents 160 of these fascinating yet little known images, many of which are presented here for the first time.
This book reveals how the designers-turned-artists placed photography at the centre of their work and even used Wilder's cinema as model for their design practice.
