The city of skyscrapers, New York, undoubtedly acted as a magnet for all modernist architects. Gehry’s respect and love for New York’s past is precisely why New Yorkers have come to love Gehry. His variety of work in New York is believed not to be broken from the past, but a new way of expressing continuity with it.
THE CONCEPT
Can a work of architecture express feeling?
