I have tried to give the students insight into my process – how and why I did things. I hope this gives them the wings to explore and the courage to create their own language – Frank Gehry
Budding architects will soon be able to receive tuition from none other than Frank Gehry, who has agreed to organise a new online master class.
The Canadian-American architect – best known for his postmodern buildings, including the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles and the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao – will deliver at least 15 video lessons sharing his design philosophy using case studies, sketches and models.
The course, organised by education platform MasterClass, will cost US$90 to participate in. A downloadable workbook will accompany the class with lesson recaps and assignments, and Gehry will critique select student work.
'I have tried to give the students insight into my process – how and why I did things. I hope this gives them the wings to explore and the courage to create their own language,' said Gehry.
In a statement, MasterClass said: “At 19 years old, Frank Gehry was a truck driver taking sculpture classes at night school. His vision for what architecture could accomplish went on to reshape our cities’ skylines, and the imaginations of artists and designers around the world.
“Now this master builder invites you into his never-before-seen model archive for a look into his creative process.”
The company offers “affordable, engaging and inspirational” online courses curated by leading instructors. For a fee, you can learn about acting from Kevin Spacey or Dustin Hoffman, singing from Christina Aguilera, photography from Annie Leibovitz and tennis from Serena Williams.
Twenty-five cameras, nine servers, 70 projectors and a range of AV technologies are being
used to bring the art of Van Gogh to life in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
A study has found that the use of cinematic and video editing techniques can drastically
increase the aesthetic appeal and user engagement of virtual reality environments.
The National Attractions Marketing Conference will see speakers representing some of the UK’s
top visitor attractions and best-in-class marketing agencies gather on 6 June at Drayton
Manor Theme Park & Resort in Staffordshire. [more...]
