This is my space to talk about my art and sometimes other things like pop culture, advertising and robots.

Take 2 parts important fashion and design, combine 1 part historic Mies architecture, and enjoy a vivid taste sensation.
I’ve been a big fan of Frank Gehry’s work for a long time. Sydney Pollock’s documentary “Sketches of Gehry” provides insight into Gehry’s mind and creative process. If you’re a fan of Gehry’s architecture then you’ll heart this documentary.
If you are going to do a documentary on one of “the greats” like Mies van der Rohe you’d better have a good concept and the ability to execute the idea. Unfortunately this documentary completely misses the mark, which is sad.
However, I managed to catch this film at Music box (one of my favorite theaters btw) on the day that they were having a panel discussion.
