Hmm, Perhaps Frank Gehry IS the perfect architect for Bruce Ratner
I was watching "End of Suburbia" the other night and remebered that one man interviewed, James Kunstler was a harsh critic of the 'starchitects' whose work he correctly described as agrophobic and well, just plain gaudy....he has an 'eyesore of the month..which included some of 'genius' frank gehry's work:
Eyesore of the Month
October 2005
The Peter B. Lewis Building for Case Western Reserve University's Weatherhead School of Management. Architect: Frank Gehry. If your dog had a tumor like this the vets would just shake their heads and put him to sleep. The design follows the logic of cancer: invade and overwhelm the host organism. It's appropriate that this building houses the business school, because it aptly expresses the disfigurement of American economic practice in our time: banality meets pathology in a tragic duet.
