239 unknown and unpublished photographs taken by Charles Eames over the years on Billy Wilder's films settings are exhibited at ADAM for the first time ever. The audience will discover the magic behind the scene, and what means the industry of cinema. Additionally, the cinephile will also discover Wilder's film sets and play in recognizing, here, a set of Sabrina (1954), or there, the outdoor locations of A Ace in the Hole (1951). 0Designers Charles and Ray Eames always practiced photography, a facet of their work less well known than their exceptional furniture (still in production) and architecture in Santa-Monica (Cal.). But, their photographic opera, amounting to more than 750,000 images, projected on screens as media installation, far from having a merely documentary value, represent an exceptional work of art that demands to be re-discovered. Among the numerous series of photography they realized, one series entitled Movie-Sets forges the exhibition Eames & Hollywood. The series taken by Charles Eames is entirely dedicated to the film sets and the natural settings chosen by his friend, the world acclaimed film director Billy Wilder, for his own movies. Armed with his trusty camera, Charles was continuously taking photographs of very high pictorial quality. 00Exhibition: Art and Design Atomium Museum (ADAM), Brussels, Belgium (10.0.3-04.09.2016).
