Beginning with Gehry's sketches for his major projects, Sketches of Frank Gehry explores the architect's process that transforms tangles of lines on paper into models held together by scotch tape, and then into buildings of titanium and glass, concrete and steel, wood and stone. Akin to Gehry's impromptu freehand sketches, this documentary has an unassuming, informal quality which makes this extraordinary architect's creative genius accessible to audiences of all levels of architectural knowledge.
Architect Frank Gehry will be honored on March 24, 2007 at the Palm Springs Art Museum's Artists and Legends Gala, where he will be presented the Helene & Lou Galen Award of Artistic Excellence by his son Alejandro. -- www.psmuseum.org
