At this very moment a Frank Gehry designed double skyscrapers are being constructed in his childhood city of Toronto. It is the tallest structures Frank has ever designed. Can't wait to see completion of these high rises in about 3 years from now or so.

This is interesting

Which city is this building in?

Bilbao, Spain

Its applied art ya ding dongs. There are no theories since nothing is provable but only ideas. Only pretend man made (screwed up as much as man is capable of) complexity since art does not need to make sense

Guggenheim design was stolen from a graduate student’s thesis, Jo Schneider…it might not change who Frank is as an architect, but it is also a fact that it’s a 99% carbon copy

[@markharris2117]

that's a ridiculous claim. even wasting my time looking this up it's clear that the argument is completely unfounded. if this is the case, then he also stole from my graduate thesis project way back in 1990. a ridiculous claim from someone desperately wanting attention - to the contrary, the work you mention is desperately trying to emulate previous work from Frank Gehry.
