The Masterworks of Architect Frank Gehry

by Natasha Wolff | January 19, 2022 6:34 pm

Known throughout the world for his stunning sculptural works such as Paris’ Fondation Louis Vuitton[1] and Bilbao’s Guggenheim Museum[2], Frank Gehry is perhaps one of the most significant architects and designers of the 20th century. Produced by Flammarion in partnership with Cahiers d’Art, Frank Gehry: The Masterpieces[3] features 480 illustrations and photographs of the Canadian American architect’s bold projects, which disrupt traditional building norms with their flowing, curving, bending and crumpling elements. Written by French architecture historian Jean-Louis Cohen, the book spotlights many of Gehry’s most remarkable designs in the United States and abroad, including the Walt Disney[4] Concert Hall and the one-of-a-kind “Binoc­ulars Building” in Los Angeles, in addition to the beloved “Dancing House” in Prague.
