Frank Gehry - MARTa Herford

Frank Gehry - MARTa Herford

English, German  | pages 112 | 2005

Located at the center of the German furniture manufacturing

industry, Marta, the latest European Museum by Frank O.

Gehry, opened in December 2004 to universal acclaim. 

Conceived

as a laboratory for redefining the relationship between art,

design, and industry, this Gehry masterwork houses art

galleries, a library, educational facilities, and conference

and cultural meeting rooms.

While the gallery is, for Gehry,

an uncharacteristic neutral white cube, it is wrapped in a

series of bulging curvatures creating a dome that announces

his distinctive architectural signature. 

This book, which

contains previously unpublished material on the design and

construction of the museum, offers insight into the working

process of arguably the world's most famous architect, and

his ideas about the shifting boundaries between industry,

design, art, and architecture.

Frank Lloyd Wright (Taschen Publishing)

Frank Lloyd Wright (Taschen Publishing)

Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer, Frank Lloyd Wright

Taschen Publishing | | 2004 

Text is in English, German and French.

Widely thought to be the greatest American architect, Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) was a true pioneer, both artistically and technically. At a time when reinforced concrete and steel were considered industrial building materials, Wright boldly made use of them to build private homes. His prairie house concept—that of a low, sprawling home based upon a simple L or T figure—was the driving force behind some of his most famous houses and became a model for rural architecture across America. Wright`s designs for office and public buildings were equally groundbreaking and unique. From Fallingwater to New York`s Guggenheim Museum, his works are among the most famous in the history of architecture.
