Label TextKnown mostly for his architectural work, including the Walt Disney Concert Hall in LA, Gehry (b. 1929) often begins a project with an abstract sketch, which he calls “the messiness.” Not all of his preparatory sketches become architecture, yet the jigsaw pieces in Puzzled #5 display the structured chaos that defines Gehry's aesthetic.
