Author and illustrator Loris Lora explores the movers and shapers of the arts in the Californian modernist movement within this gorgeous hardback Leporello.
What is the link between Alfred Hitchcock and Charles and Ray Eames, or famed illustrator Mary Blair and actor Steve McQueen? Did you know that Dennis Hopper was a photographer? Or that Walt Disney thought Psycho was disgusting? Eventually Everything Connects makes all the creative connections you don't have to. Accompanying the illustrated book is a stunning oversize poster that explains all of the links between the various creative forces so that you can finally speak with some authority on the subject of California Modernism.

"A lovely addition to library collections of art, design, and film, as well as a wonderful inspiration for student projects."
—School Library Journal
"Through stunning illustrations in a format only a human with the very longest of arms could possibly hold, we find that somehow, everyone from Frank Sinatra to Judy Garland to Walt Disney are connected with 20th century design’s golden couple, Charles and Ray Eames."
—Design Week
"Eventually Everything Connects" works like a panorama, sweeping from private to public settings: the Eames’ house to the set of "Vertigo" to the Brown Derby and the Beverly Hills Hotel. The idea is to...establish a sense of the ways in which ideas, art and expression, overlap. In "Eventually Everything Connects," Lora celebrates (both literally and figuratively) this horizontal vision, in stunning imagistic terms."
