Kann mir jemand einen Tip geben, wie die Frisur von Ray zu frisieren ist?? Brauch das für unser Theaterstück!! Eine Szene in unserer Szenencolage "besetzt" (am 4 & 5 Juli '08 in Nagold, Berufschule!!) Werden wir ein Interview mit Ray und Charles spielen!

Charles & Ray Eames are the pioneer in the Indian Design scenario. Indeed they are the architect on the formation of the first Indian Design School in Ahmedabad in India. The Lota or the traditional pot rediscovered by them had turned a new terminology in the Indian design context. Kudos to them for the formulating the present designer breed in India.

Thanks so much for posting this. I have never seen Miss Francis other than on WML? I knew she had along running local (in NYC) show but I figured most of them went out live and were never saved. This is nice to see.

nblagg: You're a fool.Charles himself always said that half of the work of the Eames Office was due to Ray. They worked together on everything, and they refused to say who did what. Because, due to the collaborative way they worked, at the end of the day neither could say. Theirs were joint works.What is indisputable: Charles would have been a moderately successful architect and industrial designer without Ray. Together, however, they were brilliant.

i'm down with not letting the whole pc thing change our honest look at things, but you are simply being absurd. is it the eames house or the eames/saarinen house that got built? the la chaise chair. the joint credit on their moveis. what charles himself said, etc... they had to adapt to the ignorance of the 1950s about women designers. no need to continue it today. i have to run now to read lee krasner's book, "you and your clean home on long island."
