Prof. Frank Gehry

With its sculptural vigor, Oscar Niemeyer’s posthumously realized pavilion in Provence provides yet another example of the Brazilian architect’s prowess.

With "The Tower", Frank Gehry has created the heart of the new LUMA Arles cultural centre in the south of France and at the same time built the city a landmark that attracts international attention.

Japanese architect Sou Fujimoto created this year’s Serpentine Gallery Pavilion in London. Daniel von Bernstorff, Stylepark, spoke to Sophie O’Brian, Senior Exhibition Curator, about the idea behind, the choice of Fujimoto and the Pavilion as an interdisciplinary platform.

Even those members of the general public who only rarely go to exhibitions or attend concerts know the cultural temples erected by the likes of Frank Gehry and Zaha Hadid – from the TV or magazines. Spectacular museums and concert halls have long since become a city marketing tool. An exhibition in Berlin takes a closer look.
