Frank Gehry I did my final project on the architect Frank Gehry. He seemed very interesting to me and I wanted to learn more about him. In an artistic climate that too often looks backwards rather that toward the future, where retrospectives are more prevalent than risk-taking, it is important to honor the architecture of Frank O. Gehry. His refreshing originality and totally American style, has made Gehry’s work highly refined, sophisticated and so adventurous that it really emphasizes the art of architecture. Frank Gehry is a master architect who is still living, and has greatly changed the face of architecture. He got this title from hard work. He started out small; building “little cities” out of wood scrapes as a child. His Grandmother was the one who influenced him to do this. Frank was born in 1929, in Toronto, and at the age of 18 moved to Los Angeles, California. Gehry attained an architecture degree in 1954 at the University of Southern California. He started out his career in Paris, working for Pereira and Lickman. When he was in Paris his French education was an enormous help to him while working.
