Dali en Eames

Date: 16 April 1998 - 3 May 1998

A presentation of two films, thematically connected through their movement from micro to macro and vice versa. The starting point of Dali's film is the famous French writer Raymond Roussel's pen. The world that flows forth from it has a radiating effect as far as Mongolia. The Eames' film begins with a picnic at the lake in Chicago, shoots out to the farthest corners of the universe and dives back into the proton of a carbon atom.

Films shown:

Salvador Dali, ‘Impressions de la haute Mongolie', ‘Hommage à Raymond Roussel' (1975; 50 min.)

Charles and Ray Eames, ‘Powers of Ten' (1968;  21 min.)
