A collection of Pictures, Plans and Suggestions for Householders (Hard Cover) (Published by Herbert S. Stone & Company, Eldridge Court, Chicago. Herbert S. Stone also published House Beautiful. Top edge trimmed and gilt, others uncut.) Author: Editor: Dow, Joy Wheeler; Chapter written by: Granger, Alfred H. Description: The article "An Architects Studio " by Alfred H. Granger was first published in the December 1899 issue of House Beautiful. It is reprinted in this volume. "An Architects Studio. When one attempts to describe almost any modern building, the first question to be asked is, "'What style?" ...One of the most radical of these opponents is Mr. Frank L. Wright, whose house and studio I have the privilege of describing... One's first impression of the dining-room is its simplicity, no rugs, no curtains, and only the necessary furniture, which, however, is in perfect harmony with the room. One entire end of the room opposite the fireplace is practically of glass, laid in leading of a very delicate design, which was evidently inspired by the lotus flower. The harmony of color between the brown and the red is perfect, and is accentuated (if one can accentuate a harmony) by the color of the walls and ceiling, which are covered with arras of a soft brown, and which give to the entire room a golden tone such as one sees in a rich sunset. In the center of the ceiling is a design of exquisite tracery, through which at night a soft light filters, and gives to the whole room a warm, rich glow. Includes 5 photographs. Note: Listed in Sweeney, but not seen by the author. (First Edition) (Sweeney 35B) Size: 7 x 8.75 Pages: Pp 207-214 S#: 0035.00B.0317         Date: 1902 Title: The Chicago Architectural Annual.

In the words of Frank Lloyd Wright, "The artist is always a pioneer, and America cannot afford to believe that great art, as her interpreter, is moribund." The pioneer spirit of America, driven suddenly from its conquest of the land into industrialism, finds expression today, at the pinnacle of its recklessness, in architecture. Its bold and youthful disregard of consequence is embodied in stripped forms of towering steel. Say what you Craven, Thomas will of this architecture and it is fashionable now to condemn it -- words can only weave a superficial garland round the fact of its existence. There it is; and the truth remains that the architect, more than any other artist, has participated in modern American civilization.        Unlike the affiliated arts of sculpture and painting, the architecture of our industrial epoch is a direct reflection of social impulses, an automatic outcome of ways of living. It flaunts no assumptions about life it is the child of life. Its highest values are those of pure function; it is simply a frame for human activity. Whatever reservations the architect may hold individually. his work, if successful, is acquiescent..." Includes two illustrations, Larkin building and St. Marks.

Wright said one of his German critics, "is the first architect to whom the atmosphere is more than mere background to his work.

"...In 1903 this was connected with an adequate and beautiful school building of native limestone, designed and erected by Frank Lloyd Wright, the son of Anna Lloyd-Jones and the nephew of Ellen and Jane. These buildings were built or appropriated in the early years of the school as the need arose. By the time ten years had passed, this healthful and lovely valley in Wisconsin have become known throughout the Middle West and further away not only as a place where children were sure to be well and to receive the best of training, But also as a home where under reasonable discipline and supervision both boys and girls might realize the best of which they were capable in physical and mental, emotional and spiritual growth... We traveled much in the realms of gold at Hillside, so many goodly sights of the earth, entered into many goodly kingdoms of the mind. We were watchers of the skyies there. Whatever visions or imagination I have been able to give to my teaching in the years since then, I owe to two women in a Wisconsin Valley thirty years ago; and I can only wish in all humility that any words of mine may prolong, if but for a season, their rightful immortality."

"...The most important contribution our design world has made (expressed in architecture and writing on it) is that of Frank Lloyd Wright; an organic concept based as much on inspiration as on experience. He emphasizes function and material as did the Bauhaus and adds, as their equivalents, the user and the environment. It would be hard to overestimate the fundamental changes which the inclusion of these two basic factors indicates..." Section IV: II: "Excerpt From London Lectures." In May, 1939, Frank Lloyd Wright lectured at the Royal Institute of British Architects during his visit to England, as holder of the Sir George Watson chair of the Sulgrave Manor Board. These were published in "An Organic Architecture: The Architecture of Democracy," Wright, 1939. "In the meantime, what great creative work have we to show as an actual working basis for the life which we have led or as proof of its validity? Not much. No, it was truly an escapist life we have led. We will find there in that life just application of the word "'escapist" if the word has any meaning at all...

This monograph is published on the occasion of an exhibition of the architecture of Mies van der Rohe held at The Museum of Modern Art, September 16 -- November 23, 1947. "Writings by Mies Van Der Rohe. 1940: Frank Lloyd Wright. An appreciation written for the unpublished catalog of the Frank Lloyd Wright exhibition held at The Museum of Modern Art. About the beginning of this century the great European artistic restoration instigated by William Morris, having grown over-refined, gradually begin to lose force. Distinct signs of exhaustion became manifest. The attempt to revival architecture from the point of view of form appeared to be doomed... At this moment, so critical for us, the exhibition of the work of Frank Lloyd Wright came to Berlin. This comprehensive display and the exhaustive publication of his works enabled us to become really acquainted with the achievements of this architect. The encounter was destined to prove of great significance to the European development... In his undiminishing power he resembled a giant tree in a wide landscape, which, year after year, attains a more noble crown."

The official occasion was Conference Five of Series Two of the academic conferences that marked Princeton's Bicentennial Celebration. The result was a gathering of architects and planners, those who teach architecture and planning, those who write about such subjects, and a sprinkling of those who are engaged in related design fields. Twenty-four prepared papers were read, and in the eight sessions of the Conference a number of extemporaneous rebuttals, refutations, concurrences, and variations were added to the discussion..." Section VII: Inspiration and Pragmatism        1) "Introduction. The papers in this section of the book may seem out of character with the others that have preceded them. However, this is a symposium, and many points of view are represented. Frank Lloyd Wright and Robert Moses have contributed interesting statements of position - in places brilliant, in each case containing some opinions which are certain to be antagonistic to any point of view the reader may hold. The final session of the Princeton Conference was a dinner, at which the principal speakers were Wright and Moses..."        2) "Education, Individualism, and Architecture. My favorite university is Princeton. Memory of pleasant times here long ago while delivering the Kahn lectures brings me now from Arizona desert to anticipated Princetonian revels of intellectual fellowship. I have the same nostalgic love for Princeton as for the great founders of our Republic. And yet, I believe, were all education above the high school level suspended for ten years humanity would get a better chance to be what humanitarian Princeton itself could wish it to be. Our thinking throughout the educational fabric has been so far departmentalized, overstandardized, and so split that like a man facing a brick wall counting bricks, we mistake the counting for reality - and so lose or ignore the perspective that would show us the nature and wherefore of the wall as a wall..."        3) "Public and Private Initiative. You have asked me to speak in the role of a public official on public and private cooperation to improve man's physical environment. I appear on this occasion as a timid, inhibited representative of the Philistine or lowest common denominator. My distinguished contemporary, Frank Lloyd Wright, on the other hand, enjoys all the privileges and immunities of an individualist responsible only to his conscience and his God. In such a debate - if debate it is - all the advantages are manifestly with the Sage of Taliesin and Paradise Valley..."        4) "The Mole and the Skylark. For at least fifty- three years of actual practice I have worked away at this affair of planning man's physical environment, meantime believing that only as the integrity of a noble spirit was reflected by it - even projected in it - could a free people have a civilization worthy the Democratic ideal of Freedom.        A witty Frenchman whose name I should remember - I have quoted him so often - said ours is "the only great nation to have proceeded directly from barbarism to degeneracy with no civilization of our own in between." Lifelong I have been trying to do something about that missing civilization - something that would invalidate the witty Frenchman's thrust.        A friendly little note reached me while in Arizona from Moses the Mole (from somewhere in South America..."

To people living in an age of abundance, Wright's conception seemed at first to offer less...

In the mid-fifties, celebrated architect Frank Lloyd Wright appeared on "Omnibus" and "Adventure." In each case he walked off the set in the middle of the interview. This was puzzling. Both shows were immaculately produced. The host -- Alastair Cook on "Omnibus" and Charles Collingwood on "Adventure" were knowledgeable and charming. But we still wanted to persuade Frank Lloyd Wright to visit the Gary Moore Show... Mr. Wright was wound up. He would have gone on indefinitely but for the inevitable station break that signaled the conclusion of the interview. Marcia was waiting for him backstage. "I led him across the stage behind a drop while Denise was doing a song out front. We nearly didn't make it. Mr. Wright stopped right there, behind the drop, and asked me in a normal speaking voice, not in the stage whisper, who had designed our theater.." Original list price $10.

New York) Author: Thorndike, Joseph J. Description: Ch. 3: Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesins. To Frank Lloyd Wright, home was more than a place to hang his wide-brimmed hat and his flowing black cape. It was his office, his studio, and his pulpit. It was a standing advertisement of his genius. It was headquarters and dwelling place, not only for his family but also for a devoted band of architectural students, usually numbering from twenty to forty, who came to learn from the master.        Wright built the first of two such homes among the green hills of southern Wisconsin, the land of his birth. The second was built a quarter century later in the harsh, bare desert of Arizona. He named each Taliesin, after a legendary Welsh poet. The first Taliesin was the scene of repeated turmoil in Wright's tempestuous married life-and of one fearful tragedy. Taliesin West was the sunny stage on which he played out with immense enjoyment his role as the greatest architect of America and, as his admirers fervently believed, of the world. When he died there in 1959, a few months short of ninety-two, he stood at the professional peak of a life that had begun only two years after the Civil War...        Includes twelve photographs and illustrations of Taliesin, Taliesin West, Frank Lloyd Wright and the four women in his life.

Chapter 11: Holland: Berlage and attitudes to Wright. The rapid evolution of de Stijl theory and practice may be largely attributed to the clear-cut polemical situation in which the group's architects found themselves, with their own Rationalist, mechanistic, abstract approach in direct opposition to the fantasticated, handicraft, figurative approach of the Wendingen group in Amsterdam. But, as is so often the case in polemics of this kind, the violent opponents had a great deal in common - in this case the example of H. P. Berlage, and his advocacy of F. Lloyd Wright...         If one sets out those theories in short form--to manipulate space with walls within an order that gives a style proper to an emergent, irreligious society, one sees that this formula is also the one by which Berlage evaluated the work of Frank Lloyd Wright. He came upon Wright's work apparently unprepared in 1911, although the first Wasmuth volume had appeared in the previous year, and he was thus the third significant European theorist to discover Wright for himself. He had been preceded by Professor Kuno Francke, inspirer of the first Wasmuth volume, in 1909; and by C. R.        Ashbee, who wrote the introduction to the second Wasmuth volume, and had visited Wright as early as 1901. The effect of the buildings he saw, and such Wright texts as he seems to have read, must have been to convince him that in Wright he saw a reflection of his own ideals. The sense of repose that he felt in the Martin House, was confirmed by Wright's statement that "Simplicity and repose are the qualities that measure the true value of any work of art"� and his admiration for Wright's straightforward use of walling by the Wrightian claim that "The Wall was let alone from base to cornice or eaves."�        As a result, the lecture he gave to the Zurich Ingenieur - und Architektenverein, in March 1912, on his American experiences, pays due tribute to Richardson and Sullivan, but is dominated by Wright...        Chapter 12: De Stijl: the Dutch phase. Discusses Frank L:loyd Wright's use of Cubism. The second essay, Der Einfluss von Frank Lloyd Wright auf die Architektur Europas, seems to have been written partly for this Bauhausbuch, and partly for the Wendingen volume on Wright which appeared in 1925. It does not contain much by way of appreciation of Wright that might not have been written by Berlage, except for some comments on the de luse aspects of Wright's domestic work, to which reference will be made in the next chapter. There is however, an important attempt to sort out the meaning of the Wrightian and painterly contribution to younger Dutch architects" work that sheds light on what 'Cubism'-that is, the art of Mondrian and van Doesburg- meant to him. It proved disappointing, he says, because formalism weakened its impact just at the time when its consequences promised to be of the greatest importance for the future of the art of building. Nevertheless, "Like the influence of Wright, Cubism played an important part in producing the characteristic forms that found expression in the aforementioned current of European architecture (scil. de Stijl)"� and he was prepared to put a very high valuation on its contribution to the growth of the new architecture of his generation...

Fourteen Geniuses Who Broke the Rules Author: Landrum, Fene N., Ph.D. Description: Frank Lloyd Wright's life would have been unbelievable had it been a novel or movie. Ayn Rand described him best in her superlative philosophical novel the Fountainhead (1943), a tale about good versus evil featuring an architect as the good or "heroic man" and the establishment as evil. Her protagonist , Howard Roark (alias Wright), fought evil by destroying his creation rather than allow meritocracy to defile it... "The Bell Curve is wrong," claims Gene Landrum. "In fact, too much money, education or IQ is counterproductive to achievement." How do creativity and entrepreneurial genius emerge? Are they acquired or inherited? According to Profiles of Power and Success, nurture, not nature, is at the root of all great success in life, and the world's great power brokers and creative geniuses are bred, not born. This high-powered volume shows that energized creative geniuses are self-motivated and driven individuals who learned how to be great. Written with the self-help audience in mind, this book will motivate all who dare to reach for success and power in their own lives. Includes one portrait of Wright.

No matter what period, or what style, House & Garden has been there to chronicle the way we live-and the way we want to live. Now, as the magazine celebrates its one hundredth anniversary, the House & Garden Book of Style looks at the bright present instead of the dimming past: here is the very best of contemporary dec-orating, covering everything from Shingle-style beach cottages to ornate town houses and cutting-edge lofts.        The domestic arts are flourishing today, bringing an unprecedented range of choices to an enthusiastic audi-ence. The result is that for the first time no one style dominates American decorating in the way that Art Deco did in the twenties, Modernism did in the fifties, or Pop Art did in the sixties. As editor-in-chief Dominique Browning points out in her foreword, "We live in a time that celebrates variety, and our job at House & Garden has been to chronicle all the different kinds of stylishness that enthrall and delight our modern sensibilities."        Seven sections, the last being Mid-Century Modern. One of the five homes featured in this section is Frank Lloyd Wright's Bachman-Wilson House. Includes five photographs of the home.

However, major modern collections, such as that of the Museum of Modern Art, New York (MoMA) - a collection which Barbara Pine knows intimately through her honorary position as a member of both the Architecture and Design and Drawings Committees - have broken down barriers of supremacies within design..."        Includes examples of work by Dankmar Adler & Louis Sullivan, Louis Sullivan, Niedecken, Frank Lloyd Wright, Michael Graves and Frank O.

Dust Jacket: "It tells the stories of ten influential works of architecture, the people who imagined them, and the way these landmarks ushered in innovative cultural shifts throughout our society. From American architectural stalwarts like Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright, to modern revolutionaries like Frank Gehry and Robert Venturi, this book examines the most prominent buildings designed by the most noteworthy architects of our time. Also profiled are Americans less noted for their architectural acumen, but no less significant for their contributions to the field. Thomas Jefferson, a self-taught architect, is profiled for designing the iconic Virginia State Capitol. Taking its inspiration from ancient Rome, America's first major public building forged a philosophical link between America and the world's earliest democracies. We see the legacy of the architects profiled like Mies van der Rohe or H.H. Richardson all around us: in the homes where we live, the offices where we work, our public buildings, and our houses of worship. 10 Buildings is the ideal collection to detail the flashes of inspiration from these architects who dared to strike out on their own and design radical new types of buildings that permanently altered our environmental and cultural landscape."
