Book excerpt: Ray Eames is known in the design world as the co-founder of the Eames Office, but few are aware of her decade of sophisticated artistic training in New York City through the 1930s. This book explores Ray's time in New York, studying painting with Hans Hofmann, voraciously soaking up the riches of Manhattan's creative culture from Martha Graham ballets to Alexander Calder shows, and exhibiting as a Founding Member of the American Abstract Artists. Ray's decade in New York influenced and deepened her lifelong creative approach.
