Shibuya culture PROJECT

Tearing the paper casually, in a unique design approach that determines the form of the building stuck in the tape, bold and quirky genius architect Frank Gehry to continue creating a modern architecture. Spain and the Guggenheim Museum, such as Disney Symphony Hall in Los Angeles, the field of the activity is over the world. "Sketches of Frank Gehry" is, Sydney Pollack Director is a longtime friend of Gary, look back to the present from the start as Gary architects, documentary that approaches deeply on its inner surface. This movie, painter and editors, musicians, etc., Daisuke Nishimura active in variety of fields were watching.

- The impression that watched the movie?

It was thought that have a very high take the way of objectivity. Sydney Pollack directed, rather than devoted to the listener of the interview, I dared not crowded transferred to my appearance also camera. Thereby not a one-to-one simple composition, though, had produced the effect, such as another person's point of view exists. Or put Jean-Luc Godard director of his own shadow, it Shuji Terayama There was a thing in communication with the style that was taken to put the audience. However, it takes the way's objective, as the perceptions of the architect of Frank Gehry, might be a negative point of view was slightly less. It was the feel of Kana, that kind of fan psychology is working a little.

- Or for the Gary, you have a kind of impression.

I, Gary, when a man like a woman architect Zaha Haditto born in Iraq, I was thinking much. Haditto is using the computer graphics, it is the architect to design a building of very strange form. Because it is extremely complicated Gary of design, the same as it had been thought it would to use computer graphics, for the Sakuchu was introduced a computer graphics had been said recently. In other words, so far it is Gary design of, so to speak, a height of analog, I'm there to counter the Haditto to make full use of digital technology. Mechanical calculation of complex building as there is, I was surprised really Naa'm possible without using a computer. Knowing that these architects are really, I learned even impressed. Had touched on the importance of team work in Sakuchu, but it will probably staff around is also very talented.

- For the process of Gary produces the design, what did you think of.

Gary is I think you told along with the word "fusion of art and architecture." In that regard, Gary is that's the proportion of long "Art 95%, construction 5%", I think you. As Kenzo Tange of the architect is symbolized by the fact that "I make the space rather than in the building" had been in the mouth and, coexistence is oriented around and in the building. However, the architecture of Gary, such coexistence is almost no, if you ask an architect with the urban planning point of view, but it is do not architectural a. It is an extreme example, but I think that it is the presence, such as the "Tower of the Sun" of Taro Okamoto I, I Gehry building. However, not a mere object is a big difference, amazing place. Gary, that the artist was thinking in abstract, I think in fact it can be said that the great guru, which proved to be in form as a building.

- Architecture itself of Gary, how would you evaluate.

Including the Guggenheim Museum that is Gary of masterpiece, many things but I saw a real, personal home is a little be honest because play too be ──. Also of the house Dennis Hopper appeared in Sakuchu, but it was extremely eccentric. Apart from I itself do not think bad that the play comes in, especially the Japanese urge "functional beauty" is to feel that Do it later. That point, because in the case of public buildings not so much require a functional beauty, I do think that Gehry designs come alive. I living in a house to design of Gary, it because is like riding a Lamborghini for the general public.
