Film: The Sketches of Frank Gehry, Plymouth Arts Centre 25 - 30 August 2007

The only showing of the film in the Southwest outside of Bristol. Billed as ............

A thrilling journey into the creative process which made Gehry one of the most visionary architects, who produced some of the world's most iconic buildings. Although he and Pollack (Out of Africa) have been friends for years, the director thankfully eschews a fawning tribute to present a well-balanced portrait. Accompanied by seductive photography of the architecture itself, Pollack embraces Gehry's 'everyman' exploration of architecture and offers reflections on the challenge of making art in a commercial context from Gehry and others, including clients Michael Eisner and Dennis Hopper. Showing at Plymouth Arts Centre.

2 winners from the film suggestion box prize draw will receive copies of the Frank Gehry Pop-up book.
