Frank Gehry: Architecture as Art

Part in-depth analysis, part whirlwind tour, this program captures the essence of Frank Gehry and his iconoclastic creations through the celebrated architect’s own words; the insights of Cesar Pelli, Richard Serra, Hiro Yamagata, and Rafael Moneo; and a broad sampling of Gehry’s many structures, which speak for themselves. The Davis studio and residence, Loyola Law School, the Edgemar Development, the Chiat/Day Building, the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, and the DG Bank Building are featured, among many others. Gehry’s love of motion, aesthetic exuberance, and dynamic language of design are considered, along with the seven constants that characterize his works. Not available in French-speaking Canada. (55 minutes)
