Frank Lloyd Wright, 1867-1959
The Wright idea "The interior space itself is the reality of the building." - Frank Lloyd Wright Widely thought to be the greatest American architect, Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) was a true pioneer, both artistically and technically. At a time when reinforced concrete and steel were considered industrial building materials, Wright boldly made use of them to build private homes. His prairie house concept--that of a low, sprawling home based upon a simple L or T figure--was the driving force behind some of his most famous houses and became a model for rural architecture across America. Wright`s designs for office and public buildings were equally groundbreaking and unique. From Fallingwater...
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...

Frank Lloyd Wright Designs
The first major presentation in decades of the visionary drawings of the artist-architect and master designer. Frank Lloyd Wright was an architect of vast and unprecedented vision, whose work is not only still admired by the critics and carefully studied by historians but is also widely beloved. Comfortable spaces, humanly scaled, with extraordinary attention to detail-as seen in a range of architectural forms-are at the center of Wright’s enduring appeal. This vision and attention is nowhere more evident than in the drawings. It has been said that had Wright left us only drawings, and not his buildings as well, he would still be celebrated for his brilliant artistry, and this is borne out...

Frank Lloyd Wright
"The mid-twentieth century was one of the most productive and inventive periods in Frank Lloyd Wright's career, producing such masterworks as the Guggenheim Museum, Price Tower, Fallingwater, the Usonian Houses, and the Lovness House, as well as a vast array of innovative furniture and object design. With a wide variety of shapes and forms-ranging from honeycombs to spirals-this period defies simplistic definition. Simplicity, democratic designs, and organic forms characterize Mid-Century Modern, and, mentoring such mid-century talents as Richard Neutra and Rudolph Schindler among others, Wright was one of its most influential proponents. Frank Lloyd Wright: Mid-Century Modern is a comprehensive examination of an under-explored period in Wright's career, a time dating from roughly 1935 to 1958, during which this master architect was at his most daring and innovative."--Jacket
