Architecture as Autobiography - Bruce Goff (1904-1982)
Photography and beyond - Part 7
The film shows 62 buildings – from small petrol stations to representative museums – designed by the American architect Bruce Goff. As such, it is the first comprehensive filmic catalogue of nearly all his surviving creations. Many of his buildings stood like shock in the landscape, paving the way for new, yet unimaginable avenues in architecture.
