Frank Gehry: The Masterpieces

The authoritative coffee table book "Frank Gehry: The Masterpieces" is a unique collection featuring the most important masterpieces of American architect Frank Gehry.

Frank Gehry experiments with a range of materials, from inexpensive mass-produced materials to space-age titanium, and uses 3D computer models as architectural tools. Frank Gehry's buildings are remarkable and surprising, united by the sense of movement they exude. His projects flow, curve, bend and crease in new and unexpected ways, subverting traditional building norms. From his own home in Santa Monica to the undulating Beekman Tower in New York, from the gleaming curves of the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao to the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris and his most recent structure, Luma Arles, Gehry has left his indelible mark on the history of architectural design.

Forty of the famous architect's most notable works are presented by architect and critic Jean-Louis Cohen, with views of each building's interior and exterior. This tour includes many of Gehry's works in the United States and abroad, such as the Walt Disney Concert Hall, the unique "Binoculars Building" in Los Angeles and the beloved "Dancing House" in Prague.
