Celebrating the work of Frank Gehry, this catalog focuses on his most prolific architectural work in Santa Monica and Venice, California. His own house in Santa Monica, for example, demonstrates his penchant for employing simple materials in unique, innovative ways. Chain link fences, aluminum siding, and window panes are set at sharp, striking angles from one another, yet the entire ensemble achieves a surprising sense of harmony. Other Gehry works discussed and illustrated include Loyola Law School, the California Aerospace Museum, the Edgemar Development, the Restaurant “Fishdance” in Japan, and the Yale Psychiatric Institute in Connecticut, to name a few.
