Lloyd Wright : Master Builder
NEW YORK, NY Universe Pub, ISBN: 0789300982, 240 p. : ill. (chiefly col.) ; 21 cm.,
in association with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation, (September 1997)
"Revised edition of Frank Lloyd Wright: the masterworks, first published in the
United States of America in 1993 by Rizzoli International Publications, Inc."--T.p.
verso. Includes statements and text by Frank Lloyd Wright. Covers extend to form
additional leaves. Includes bibliographical references (p. 239-240). This book presents
twenty-five of the most renowned and significant buildings of America's premier architect,
from his early Prairie work in Oak Park, Illinois, in the 1890s to his daring creations of
the 1940s and 1950s. Published in association with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation, this
superbly illustrated volume features previously unpublished photographs for which renowned
architectural photographers Michael Freeman and Paul Rocheleau gained unprecedented access
to some of Wright's masterworks. The book examines in unsurpassed detail a selection of
Wright's architecture that covers the phenomenal range of his work, including such
internationally famous buildings as the Home and Studio in Oak Park, Taliesin West in
Scottsdale, Arizona, Fallingwater in Mill Run, Pennsylvania, and the Solomon R. Guggenheim
Museum in New York, as well as several lesser-known residences such as the Auldbrass
Plantation in South Carolina and the Kenneth Laurent house in Rockford, Illinois. The
works featured here are succinctly documented by one of Wright's former apprentices, with
text that details the development and execution of each commission. Also included
throughout is a selection of Wright's extensive writings, unpublished talks, and private
letters. |

Fallingwater
: Frank Lloyd Wright's Romance With Nature
Universe Pub; ISBN: 0789300729 ; Dimensions (in inches): 0.54 x 7.54 x
7.60, 80 pages, reprint edition (November 1996)
Fallingwater - Wright's masterwork - is considered his sublime integration of building and
nature. Deep in the lush Pennsylvania forest, Fallingwater rises as a testament to
Wright's genius. Nowhere else is his architecture felt so warmly or appreciated so
intuitively. Wright's deep understanding of nature and of man's place in nature is
presented through this architectural icon. An abundance of beautiful photographs of
Fallingwater, elegantly framed by its dramatic natural setting, illuminates the naturally
inspired features of Wright's masterpiece. Wright authority Lynda S. Waggoner's
introduction - along with excerpts from Wright's observations of nature and quotes from
philosophers such as Emerson and Thoreau, who profoundly influenced Wright's thinking -
reveals how this legendary twentieth-century architect made the natural world a central
element in his revolutionary approach to architecture. |

Although a founding figure of modern architecture as well as its most celebrated
and prolific practitioner, Frank Lloyd Wright has always remained elusively outside the
mainstream. In this book, the architectural historian Neil Levine redefines our
understanding of Wright in the first comprehensive and in-depth analysis of the
architect's entire career since the opening of the Wright Archives. Making use of the
architect's drawings, notes, writings, and personal and professional correspondence, the
author weaves together historical and biographical material in a carefully documented,
chronologically ordered framework that gives new meaning and relevance to Wright's
enormously varied production. The main theme of Wright's work is the intimate relation
between architecture and nature, as revealed through the processes of abstraction and
representation. The power of its hold on us lies in the various ways Wright developed this
idea for the suburb, the city, and the country, for environments as different as the
American Midwest or Southwest and Baghdad, and for programs ranging from the single-family
house and the suburban church to the museum and the civic center. Levine conveys the
significance of the continuities and changes that he sees in Wright's architecture and
thought by adopting a case-study method that focuses successive chapters on the
architect's most important designs. The origins of the revolutionary Prairie House are
traced to the Winslow House, its full manifestation being seen in the later Robie House.
Taliesin, the Imperial Hotel, Hollyhock House, the textile-block houses and projects,
Fallingwater, and Taliesin West are each given special attention. Discussions of the
Guggenheim Museum, the proposed Baghdad Opera House, and the Marin County Civic Center
show how Wright's later work, contrary to received opinion, opened up important new areas
of investigation into the language of architectural expression. Levine's analysis of the
representational imagery and narrative structure of Wright's buildings situates the
architect's work in the general context of modern thought and gives this book a unique
place in the writings on Wright. |

Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater (The Building Blocks Series)
NEW YORK, NY, Princeton Architectural Pr; ISBN: 1568982038 ; Dimensions (in
inches): 0.69 x 7.31 x 5.37, 89 pages (February 2000) . This book is part of of a series
of books by photographer Ezra Stoller.
"In the foothills of Western Pennsylvania lies what is undoubtedly the most famous
modern home in the United States and, perhaps, the world: Frank Lloyd Wright's
Fallingwater. Commissioned in 1934 to design a weekend retreat for Pittsburgh department
store magnate Edgar Kaufmann, Wright shocked his client and the architectural
establishment with a daring sculptural composition dramatically cantilevered over the
white water of Bear Run."--BOOK JACKET. "Fallingwater at once expresses Wright's
ideal of an "organic" architecture attuned to the rhythms of the natural world
while fully embracing the modernist idiom - albeit on his own terms. For Wright, the
commission offered a chance to thrust himself back into the forefront of architectural
practice. Considered passe by some proponents of the international Style, with
Fallingwater Wright proved to all that he remained at the vanguard of the
profession."--BOOK JACKET. "Ezra Stoller's photographs of Fallingwater, largely
commissioned by New York's Museum of Modern Art in 1963, have become icons in their own
right, illustrating the building's integral connection to the landscape and its striking
modern form."--BOOK JACKET. |
