DVD - Sketches of Frank Gehry
Frank Gehry has been responsible for the design of some of the most stunning buildings in the world, including The Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, the Guggenheim Bilbao in Spain and the Experience Music Project in Seattle. As Gehry explains, he begins each project by sketching the design. This love for the sketch motivated Pollack to try to capture that quality in his film by using a combination of film and Mini DV (digital video).
Spending countless hours in Gehry’s studio, on building sites, and in his home, this quiet and unobtrusive shooting style has captured, for the first time, the essence of Gehry’s unique architectural process, and his shy and elusive personality. As a counterpoint, Pollack captures on film the grandeur of some of Gehry’s most remarkable architectural accomplishments.
