Frank Gehry archive gets home in Los Angeles
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A massive archive containing papers, drawings and models of work by world-renowned architect Frank Gehry is getting a home in Los Angeles.
The Getty Research Institute says it's acquired an archive covering more than 30 years of work by the LA-based Gehry, whose masterpieces include the Walt Disney Concert Hall in downtown LA and the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain.
The archive includes hundreds of thousands of sketches, models, photographs, slides, digital files and paperwork involving 283 projects Gehry designed between 1954 and 1988.
Gehry tells the Los Angeles Times (http://bit.ly/2nkPdRq ) that the work represents a lot of his heart and soul and he hopes it will inspire people.
