project work on the work of deconstructivists, deconstructivism and frank gehry.

1. Deconstructivism
Started in1980s

2. About deconstructivism
 Started in the 1980’s and still going on today.
 Deconstructivism is an approach to building design that
attempts to view architecture in bits and pieces.
 Deconstructivist buildings may seem to have no visual
logic
 Ideas were borrowed from the French
philosopher, Jacques Derrida.
 Buildings may appear to be made up of abstract forms.

3. Contemporary art
 Two strains of modern art, minimalisn and cubism
, have had an influence on deconstructivism.
 A synchronicity of disjoined space is evident in
many of the works of Frank Gehry and Bernard
Tschumi.

4. Frank Gehry
 Frank Owen Gehry, is an architect
based in Los Angeles, California.
 His buildings, including his private
residence, have become tourist
attractions.

follows

the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology (MIT).

9. Dancing house
 The very non-traditional design was
controversial at the time.
 Czech president ,Vaclav Havel who
lived for decades next to the site, had
supported it, hoping that the building
would become a center of cultural
activity.
 The “dancing” shape is supported by
99 concrete panels, each a different
shape and dimension.
 Windows of dancing structure.

10. The monorail, built for Seattle's
1962 Worlds Fair
 This museum, focussed on pop music and is
dedicated to Jimi Hendrix.

feet).
