This book, published to accompany a retrospective exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, presents a comprehensive summary of his vision - from the turn of the century until his death in 1959 - and a new assessment of his remarkable achievement. A wealth of illustrations, including many in full color, present newly restored original drawings of his designs as well as photographs of built works. Wright's residential architecture provided images and models for generations of suburban building across the United States. Among his best known works are single-family houses: the Prairie houses; the California Textile Block houses; Usonian houses for middle-class America; and spectacular commissions for wealthier clients, such as Fallingwater, the famous house constructed on natural rock and cantilievered dramatically over a waterfall. Wright also explored community planning and low-cost housing, and he executed a wide range of institutional and commercial projects. Among the latter are the Larkin Company Administration Building in Buffalo; Unity Temple in Oak Park, Illinois; the S.C. Johnson & Son, Inc. Administration Building and Research Laboratory Tower in Racine, Wisconsin; the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York; and the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo - all landmarks in the history of architecture. Wright's most spectacular commissions are presented in these pages along with a representative selection of works from all periods of his unusually long and productive career. Projects are shown through photographs of buildings and models, through plans and sketches, and through reproductions of the architect's masterful drawings, many previously unpublished. Research for the book has drawn upon many sources, including unrestricted, independent access to The Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation and Archives. A pragmatist and brilliant technical innovator, Wright was also an aggressively independent thinker and articulate advocate for his views. The essays in this book, by distinguished architectural critics and historians, not only chart the development of his work, but also define the essence of his thought, which had its core in Emersonian spiritualism. Exploring the resonance of Wright's career in twentieth-century American society, the authors discuss his views on individuality and community, craftsmanship and technology, and nature and the built environment; his relationship to European modernism; and his autocratic advocacy of a democratic architecture." - Publisher.

Oldenburg; Inconstant Unity: The Passion of Frank Lloyd Wright by William Cronon; Frank Lloyd Wright and Modernism by Anthony Alofsin; Modernization and Mediation: Frank Lloyd Wright and the Impact of Technology by Kenneth Frampton; Frank Lloyd Wright and the Domestic Landscape by Gwendolyn Wright; and The Landscapes of Frank Lloyd Wright: A Pattern of Work by Terence Riley. Terence Riley (November 6, 1954 May 17, 2021) was an American architect and museum curator. He was the chief curator of architecture and design at the Museum of Modern Art from 1992 to 2006. In 1984, Riley formed the firm Keenen/Riley in 1984 with John Keenen. As a member of ACT UP, Riley worked on Let The Record Show, a window installation that opened at the New Museum in 1987. In 1990, he opened the Arthur Ross Architecture Gallery at Columbia, and was recruited by Philip Johnson a year later to work at the Museum of Modern Art, becoming Philip Johnson Chief Curator for architecture and design in 1992. He helped to found the MoMA/P.S.1 Young Architects Program. In 2006 he became director of the Miami Art Museum, leaving in 2009 to return to architectural practice in Miami. At MoMA, he curated a number of important shows during his 14-year tenure. Glenn Lowry, the museum's director since 1995, said that his work on "Frank Lloyd Wright: Architect" (1994), and "Mies in Berlin" (2001) "reflected a high level of scholarship." Undeniably the greatest architectural genius of his time, Frank Lloyd Wright produced a vast body of work that defined and redefined American architecture. This book, published to accompany a retrospective exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, presents a comprehensive summary of his vision--from the turn of the century until his death in1959--and a new assessment of his a rmarkable achievement. The Museum of Modern Art included Frank Lloyd Wright's work in its inaugural architectural exhibition, Modern Architecture, International Exhibition, in 1932. The inclusion was an uneasy one. Organizers Philip Johnson and Henry-Russell Hitchcock acknowledged the genius of Wright's earlier work, but saw Europe as the cutting edge of architectural innovation. Wright himself rejected the International Style and was offended by being grouped with other architects. Wright's achievements of the late 1930s forced a re-evaluation of his position. In 1940, the Museum mounted Frank Lloyd Wright: American Architect, a major retrospective of his work to date. Wright himself arrived with an entourage of apprentices, amid a fanfare of publicity, to supervise the installation of the one-man show. In 1962, three years after his death, the architect's lifetime achievements were surveyed in Frank Lloyd Wright Drawings. Individual Wright projects were the subject of a series of focused exhibitions during the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. The single-project exhibitions began in 1938, with Fallingwater. This was followed by A New Country House (1946), featuring Wright's model for the then-unbuilt G.M. Loeb House in Redding, Connecticut; Frank Lloyd Wright: Taliesin and Taliesin West (1947); and Frank Lloyd Wright: A New Theatre (1949). In 1952, Frank Lloyd Wright: Building for Johnson's Wax Company was installed as a peep show of three-dimensional slides in individual viewers. This book is published in conjunction with the exhibition Frank Lloyd Wright: Architect, a comprehensive retrospective of the achievement of this genius of American architecture. Coming thirty-five years after his death, this exhibition presents a new generational view of Wright and his architecture, as the Museum's first retrospective of his work, presented in 1940, reflected that of an earlier generation. Developed from a broad cultural perspective, Frank Lloyd Wright: Architect addresses critical contemporary issues: the archit.
