The Essential Frank Lloyd Wright
Presents a collection of significant writings of Frank Lloyd Wright.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Published in conjunction with a major exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, this catalogue reveals new perspectives on the work of Frank Lloyd Wright, a designer so prolific and familiar as to nearly preclude critical reexamination. Structured as a series of inquiries into the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation Archives, the book is a collection of scholarly explorations rather than an attempt to construct a master narrative. Each chapter centers on a key object from the archive that an invited author has "unpacked"-interpreting and contextualizing it, tracing its meanings and connections, and juxtaposing it with other works from the archive, from MoMA, or from outside collections. The publication aims to open up Wright's work to questions, interrogations, and debates, and to highlight interpretations by contemporary scholars, both established Wright experts and others considering this iconic figure from new and illuminating perspectives.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Des maisons de style Prairie au musée Guggenheim, de Taliesin, sa demeure, aux Midways Gardens, Frank Lloyd Wright s'attacha toujours - passionnément - à l'idée d'une architecture qui fasse corps avec son environnement, tout autant qu'avec les êtres et les œuvres qu'elle abrite. Revendiquant une architecture "organique" et harmonieuse dont Fallingwater est sans conteste l'illustration la plus remarquable, Wright déclara un jour " Je pense que nous nous dirigeons vers une époque où la maison sera l'œuvre d'art, la grande œuvre d'art. "Frank Lloyd Wrignt : Archives" mêle les aspects personnels et professionnels de la longue et prolixe vie de l'architecte, et offre de nombreux fac-similés de manuscrits, brochures, affiches, croquis, brouillons de lettres, ainsi que des entretiens enregistrés et des conversations avec les apprentis de sa Taliesin Fellowship. Autant d'éléments qui permettent au lecteur un contact direct, personnel - appréciable - avec l'histoire de cet artiste génial.

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...
