Frank Gehry’s renovation of the Art Gallery in his hometown looks like his best work in a few years. He very subtly creates a dialog between the old and the new buildings. The fantastic staircase that connects the older building to the newer galleries is a great example of this. Just when I thought he’d become the architectural equivalent of Al Pacino, he’s re-asserted his greatness. Even the typically dour Ouroussoff is quite taken with the work.
