Description
John Wiley Frank Lloyd Wright His Life and His Architecture 1991 Edition by Robert C. Twombly
A complete biography based on a wide range of previously untapped primary sources, covering Wrighta s private life, architecture, and role in American society, culture, and politics. Views Wrighta s buildings as biographical as well as social statements, analyzing his work by type, category, and individual structure. Examines Wrighta s struggle to develop a new artistic statement, his dramatic personal life, and his political and economic ideas, including those on cities, energy conservation, cooperative home building, and environmental preservation. Includes over 150 illustrations (photographs, floor plans, and drawings----many never before published), extensive footnotes, and the most exhaustive bibliography of Wrighta s published work available.
