Sketches of Frank Gehry

Architect Frank O. Gehry's signature style of sleek curves and modern angles is explored in this intimate documentary by Sydney Pollack. Pollack starts with Gehry's original sketches and follows their evolution from a 3D model to a computer-assisted rendition to construction and finally, the polished finished product. Works featured include the Fish in Barcelona, the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles and various residences.

Yes, it's a love letter to Gehry...but why not? Love or hate the man's work, there's no denying he has moved modern architecture forward by leaps and bounds. Watching his seemingly sloppy, tiny sketches become full-blown buildings is just mind-blowing. Some great insight into the fabrication process too. There is also a great collection of buildings and private homes showcased beautifully. A must see for fans of architecture and art.
