Frank Gehry Uncensored

In this program, Frank Gehry discusses the popular Guggenheim Museum Bilbao in detail, a building that is hailed as a cathedral for art and is a masterpiece in its own right. He also discusses his desire to incorporate a sense of motion into his buildings, the Sydney Opera House’s abominable new neighbor, and the $2-billion job he turned down. In addition, he answers questions about what constitutes ugly architecture, how he gets his ideas, and what motivates him. Footage of the beautiful museum complements this captivating interview.
