Summary:

Documenting the 50 year friendship and collaborative efforts of noted architects and friends Frank Gehry and Robert Tannen. The book features essays, personal notes, and collaborative and individual work in a range of media, including architectural models, sculpture, painting, printmaking, urban planning, and product design. Recognized as the defining architect of our times, Frank Gehry changed the cultural landscape with his designs for Walt Disney Counter Hall in Los Angeles and the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain. Robert Tannen's career includes sculpture, painting, conceptual art, and urban planning. After coming to Biloxi, Mississippi to create a masterplan for the Gulf Coast post-Hurricane Camille, he relocated to New Orleans where he master planned the second span of the Mississippi River Bridge, and was a founder of the New Orleans Contemporary Art Center, and continues to this day his distinctive practice of urbanism, art, and community activism.
