Das Gesamtwerk, Allemand
Frank Lloyd Wright (Richland Center, Wisconsin, 8 giugno 1867 - Phoenix, Arizona, 9 aprile 1959) è stato un architetto statunitense e una figura centrale dell'architettura organica. Assieme a Le Corbusier, che rappresenta forse in maniera più emblematica l'altro lato dell'architettura moderna (quello della cosiddetta architettura funzionale), è uno dei maggiori esponenti del Movimento Moderno in architettura ed il rappresentate di maggior rilievo dell'architettura organica. Romanticamente legato all'ideologia individualistica del "pionierismo" statunitense, si volse all'approfondimento del rapporto fra l'individuo e lo spazio architettonico e fra questo e la natura, assunta come fondament...

Treasures of Taliesin
Many of Frank Lloyd Wright's most remarkable designs were never built. This lavish book presents 106 superb renderings of projects that never saw completion -- and explains why, in concise, insightful essays by Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer, director of archives at The Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. Pfeiffer draws on his long association with Wright to describe the circumstances surrounding the germination of each project and characterize the fascinating, often quirky personalities involved. In his careful selection of projects, Pfeiffer has created a visual history of Wright's accomplishments over a career that stretched from 1895 to 1959. This collection of drawings is both a visual feast and a fascinating overview of Frank Lloyd Wright's architectural genius.

Frank Lloyd Wright, the Guggenheim Correspondence
A narrative in correspondence from the "Guggenheim Letters," a remarkable archive that, in its entirety, would make a stack equal in height to the model of the Guggenheim Frank Lloyd Wright made in 1946. Here is a very personal and detailed account of the creative struggle required to build the extraordinary Guggenheim Museum. It is a seventeen-year saga which saw the firing of the first curator, the death of the donor, and the creation of six complete sets of plans and 749 drawings. Ironically, Wright died six months before its completion. From its opening in October 1959, The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum has been recognized as Frank Lloyd Wright's crowning achievement. Pfeiffer demonstrates that the story of its construction is arresting drama as well. The Guggenheim, while periodically modified and adapted to meet its changing needs, continues to give expression to Wright's artistic vision and is a testament to the spirit of both Wright and Guggenheim.
