Frank Gehry
Frank Owen Gehry (born Goldberg), CC, architect (born 28 February 1929 in Toronto, ON). Winner of the prestigious Pritzker Architecture Prize and a Companion of the Order of Canada, Frank Gehry is one of the world’s most renowned architects. He has produced public and private buildings in the United States, Europe and Asia. By the latter part of the 20th century, he had evolved into one of the most recognizable and publicly discussed architects in the world — one of a handful of architects whose widely recognized projects put architecture back into public discourse. The century was capped with the naming of Gehry's Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain, as the building of the century. As Mildred Friedman notes, “More than any other architect of his generation, Frank Gehry is an innovator whose vision reaches beyond the accepted aesthetic and technical constraints of 20th-century architecture.”
