Frank Gehry
When I first heard about this article I was quite shocked to hear what was said from him, because literally a few days before this article was published I just watched a Ted Talk about Frank Gehry and the infamous 'Bilbao Affect' that everyone wants to re-create for every building that gets built nowadays.
However reading more into the article obviously as ever the media takes everything out of context and goes over board, hes just stating the fact of the truth that there isn't anymore a real sense of design, I mean generally what you see these days is a building just aesthetically pleasing on the eye, but whats the function or purpose?
I understand Gehry's frustration whether he was a bit jet lagged when he gave his response or he actually meant word for word of it all. At the end of the day I know what he means.
You can read the article here in full down below I've left a link:

Other than that mishap, here's something that I found on the Vanity Fair Culture Page, something new, fresh and vibrant. It's a 4 page article spread, it's pretty impressive.
