Frank Gehry
Frank Gehry was born on February 28, 1929. A famous architect even in our time some of his most famous works are the Guggenheim Museum in Spain, the Walt Disney Concert hall in Los Angeles, Experience Music Project in Washington, and the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto. Born in Canada Gehry has been said to always having been a creative person. Always drawing and building things out of stuff he had available around him. He studied at the Los Angeles City College in 1947, and eventually graduated from the University of Southern California's school of Architecture in 1954. His designs use a lot of abstract shapes and concave motion that give a very unique look. Though some people have criticized his work for this because it doesn't serve any practical use or it looks out of place.
