Looking for something to do tonight? Head across the river to DWR in Cambridge, where they will be showing the Films of Charles & Ray Eames. I wrote about the films a couple years ago, and here’s a bit of what I said then:


With topics ranging from the intricacies of a box of nails, to the depths of space, they gave insight into how one of the most creative couples in the last century thought about the world.

Eames DVDs available at DWR.

There will be a Q&A with Jehane Kuhn, formerly of the Eames Office, to accompany the viewing. The event is from 7-9pm; refreshments will be served.

Unfortunately, I can’t make it, but that doesn’t mean you should miss it.

    Gradon,
    Too bad you missed it! Jehane was great in her discussion about the Eames, including some of the difficulties of working under two people who were both brilliant and yet uniquely obtuse. Incidentally her buttocks appear in the opening sequence of “Fibreglas chairs, and how they came to be”
