Description
Considering the trajectory of architecture, how would you define the works/style of either Frank Gehry or Tadao Ando. I ask that consider their works in light of the language of function, aesthetics and style we have spoken about. You can choose a work to anchor your response!
Explanation & Answer
Gehry is sometimes associated with what is known as the "Los Angeles
School" or the "Santa Monica School" of architecture. The
appropriateness of this designation and the existence of such a school,
however, remains controversial due to the lack of a unifying philosophy
or theory. Gehry’s style at times seems unfinished or even crude, but his work is consistent with the California funk
art movement in the 1960s and early 1970s, which featured the use of
inexpensive found objects and non-traditional media such as clay to make
serious art
