Franck Gehry : Catalogue Raisonnée of the Drawings : Volume one : 1954-1978

Résumé En

Pritzker Prize winner Frank Gehry is widely considered to be one of the world’s most important living architects. Much of Gehry’s genius can be found in his drawings, works of art in their own right, whose progressions from paper architecture to built poststructuralist reality have changed our own visual landscape forever. Cahiers d’Art will publish the complete collection of the drawings of Frank Gehry, documenting the sketches and studies of one of our foremost artists and designers alongside photographs of the completed maquettes and realized structures. This catalog – the first of eight planned volumes that will critically present the entire oeuvre of Toronto-born, Los Angeles-based architect Frank Gehry (born 1929) using his sketches as the primary graphic material – includes texts and high-quality images of individual works and preparatory drawings.
