2008-05-17T02:34:48Z

Over the past few days, there have been many protests and events to mark the Nakba. The memory of the flight of those Palestinian refugees has also been captured in a haunting art installation that will be displayed in Jerusalem.

2008-05-10T08:39:29Z

Frank Gehry: From 1990, defending a vision for architecture

2008-05-17T02:31:17Z

www.ted.com Speaking at TED in 1990, the not-yet-legendary architect Frank Gehry takes a whistlestop tour of his work to date, from his own Venice Beach house to the under-construction American Center in Paris. In this 50-minute slideshow (before TED's 18-minute limit), Gehry explains the site-specific nature of his buildings -- context he felt was lost in the discussions of his then-controversial work. In this candid and funny talk, he exposes his own messy creative process ("I take pieces and bits, and look at it, and struggle with it, and cut it away...") and the way he struggles with problems ("This model on the left is pretty awful. I was ready to commit suicide when this was built ... If any of you have ideas on it, please contact me. I don't know what to do").
