Author: Eastberg, John C.; Vogel, Eric
Description: Layton Art Gallery, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. "Partridge was a great admirer of Frank Lloyd Wright and that he had gathered many of his drawings, models, renderings, and project photographs for an exhibition in New York. She wrote to Wright... and inquired whether he would consider an exhibition of his work at the Layton Art Gallery... Wright responded immediately and agreed." While setting up the display he is interviewed and is quoted on November 20, 1930 "It will take Milwaukee fully a century to recover from the influence of these buildings" (their new courthouse). "A firestorm ensued in the Milwaukee press, which naturally increased attendance at the exhibition. Over the course of just three days, more than twelve hundred visitors came to the gallery, breaking all records for attendance..." We supplied one image of Wright for the book.

Date: 1930 Title: Wright exhibition at the Layton Art Gallery, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 1930.
Description: The exhibition opened late November 1930. St. Mark's in-the-Bouwerie Model (1929 project) is proximately featured, as is the Gas Station Model in the foreground. The Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation dates this project 1932, but it is seen here in 1930 (see Wright 1917-1942, Pfeiffer, pages 217-218). To the left is the Wright designed Skyscraper Vase. Designed and executed circa 1905, it appeared in photographs of Wright's 1907 exhibition at the Art Institute of Chicago and published in "The Early Work" 1968, page 101-103, and measured 22.5 x 6.125 x 3.5. Behind the vase on the left and right are the Nakomis (left) and Nakoma (right) Sculptures, designed in 1924, photographed in 1926. While Wright is setting up the display he is interviewed and is quoted on Nov. 20, 1930, in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, "It will take Milwaukee fully a century to recover from the influence of these buildings" (their new courthouse). A firestorm erupted in the Milwaukee press, which increased attendance at the exhibition. See "Layton's Legacy" 2013, pages 219-221.

Date: 1930 Title: Wright exhibition at the Layton Art Gallery, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 1930.
Description: The exhibition opened late November 1930. The Richard Lloyd Jones Residence (1929 - S.227) is proximately featured in the center. Drawings and illustrations drape the wall. The Nakomis Model, designed in 1924, photographed in 1926, sets above the partition to the right. On the table in the foreground are stacks of additional drawings for the viewers to thumb through. Of interest is the seemingly lackadaisical approach Wright took in displaying the illustrations, many of which are considered priceless today. While Wright is setting up the display he is interviewed and is quoted on Nov. 20, 1930, in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, "It will take Milwaukee fully a century to recover from the influence of these buildings" (their new courthouse).

Only since 1928, after continental architects had united in a splendid tribute to his work, and after the Paris Exposition of 1925 had marked the triumph of radical tendencies in architecture and the industrial arts, has Wright come into his own as a prophet in his native land...."

Title: Broadacre City Model, Aerial View 1940 (1934 - FLLW #3402).
Description: Aerial view of architect Frank Lloyd Wright's model of Broadacre City, exhibited at The Museum of Modern Art in 1940. Broadacre City was a plan for a decentralized community that Wright promoted endlessly from the 1930s to his death in 1959. He believed that everyone should have at least an acre of land and the right to beautiful housing and carefully organized cities that were spread out, not like the congestion of places like New York, a town he insulted more than once. Frank Lloyd Wright first introduced Broadacre City in The Disappearing City, 1932. In 1934, with the aid of his apprentices, Wright brought Broadacre City of life in a 12' x 12' model shown publically for the first time April 15 to May 15, 1935 at the Industrial Arts Exposition in Rockefeller Center, New York. It consisted of architectural models, complete with tiny forests, homes, schools, factories and farms.
In 1940, The Museum of Modern Art exhibited "Frank Lloyd Wright, American Architect", organized by the museum and frank Lloyd Wright. It ran from November 13, 1940 - January 5, 1941. Wright coined it "The Show to End all Shows." It included drawings, photostats photographs, models and descriptive panels, and included the complete Broadacre City model and four individual Broadacre models.
Wright also published "The New Frontier, Broadacre City" for the show. "For five months the Fellowship devoted its energies to the models illustrated here and is refreshing them all for exhibition this coming November at the Museum of Modern Art, New York City."

Author: The Museum of Modern Art. New York
Description: Museum of Modern Art Opens Large Exhibition of the Work of Frank Lloyd Wright, American Architect.
The United States has for many years been the leader of the world in government, industrial methods and technology. Its influence in the fine arts, however, has not often been conspicuous. But for the past half century, through the work of its greatest architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, it has held world leadership in architecture. This influential achievement will be shown in the exhibition which opens at the Museum of Modern Art, 11 West 53 Street, on Wednesday, November 13, and which will remain on view through January 5.
The exhibition, Frank Lloyd Wright: American Architect, consists of eighteen large and extremely detailed architectural models, many enlarged photographs, color transparencies and architectural plans and original drawings. The entire exhibition is being installed by Mr. Wright himself and several apprentices he has brought with him to New York from his unique workshop-school-home community at Taliesin, Wisconsin.
The great pioneer of modern architecture was for many years almost neglected in his native country. In Europe, however, Frank Lloyd Wright began to exert a powerful influence on the younger architects in the second decade of this century. After twenty years this influence came back to the United States in the form of European importations. In 1931, with the publication of a series of lectures which Wright delivered at Princeton and the special number of the Architectural Forum devoted to his work in 1937, his direct influence in his own country began to increase; and with his spectacular new activity in building, begun three or four years ago, Wright became a living "old master" of our living architectural tradition.
Wright has not yet, however, received from his own country honors equal to those bestowed upon him by foreign lands...

Date: 1945 Title: Opus 497 "Glass House" Model
Description: Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1944-45 for the "Ladies Home Journal", the Opus 497 "Glass House" Model and Plan was published in the June 1945 issue. At first glance this image looks like a detail of Broadacre City, but upon further study, it was discovered to be a detail of the model built for the Ladies Home Journal in 1945. In January 1944, the LHJ began publishing new house designs by the country's outstanding architects, "houses that point the way to better, less expensive living after the war". This caught the attention of the Department of Architecture and Industrial Design at the Museum of Modern Art. Seven of the models created for the LHJ, were the focus for the exhibition "Tomorrow's Small House: Models and Plans" held at MOMA from May 29 - September 30, 1945. Also included in the exhibition was a model of a row-house and a neighborhood development. Originally created to enable color photographs to be taken of the models for the magazine, the models were so complete and detailed they made excellent displays. Detail of the entrance to the Opus 497 Model. Hand written on verso: "June 1945". Stamped on verso: "Acme Newspictures Inc., New York City". Caption pasted to verso: "761381RO (3) Detail: Wright House. Overhang at the entrance to the house designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, would protect persons to and from car in driveway. Incidentally, that's strictly the model-makers' version of the post-war car, so don't go ordering it from Detroit. (6/1/45).) Acquired from the archives of the Seattle Times.

Description: Produced in conjunction with an exhibition held at Max Protetch Gallery, New York, December 4, 1980 - January 12, 1981. "In the years after World War II, when American optimism about modern architecture was at its zenith, architectural photography assumed a new importance. Photographs were no longer simply records of built facts, or even poetic interpretations. They became missionary tracks published into the world, teaching the people the demanding but redemptive art of looking at modern buildings... Ezra Stoller's photographs are now part of the history of modern architecture in the United States. If he made some buildings look a little better than they were, the improvement provided an image for aspiring architects..." Of the 16 photographs published in the catalog, four are of Frank Lloyd Wright's work: Johnson Wax Research Tower 1950, Fallingwater 1963 (2), and the Guggenheim Museum 1959. (First Edition)

Title: The Domestic Scene (1897-1927): George M. Niedecken, Interior Architect (Soft Cover) (Published by the Milwaukee Art Museum, Milwaukee, Wisc.)
Author: Robertson, Cheryl; Marvel, Terrence; Niedecken, George M.
Description: Published in conjunction with an exhibition held November 19, 1981 though January 17, 1982 at the Milwaukee Art Museum. Foreword: "Though George Niedecken studied and traveled in fin-de-siecle Europe, his roots remain strong in Milwaukee and Wisconsin. He returned to Milwaukee to work as an artist, furniture designer and interior architect planner. The Jacobson gift and loan posed the challenge to present Niedecken's work in the context of his time. Reconstructing Niedecken's career, consulting with the present owners of buildings he had decorated, and seeking out three-dimension objects made from his working drawings prove to be a major exercise in original research... We are pleased to acknowledge important support for the exhibition, it's catalog and supplementary interpretive materials. We received a Visiting Specialist Grant from the National Endowment for the Arts in 1979.... We want to express our sincere gratitude to all of those who permitted our staff to visit, examine and photograph their homes and furnishings. Likewise we want to express our gap gratitude to the lenders to the exhibition...." (First Edition)

Foreword To The Second Edition: In 2001 the Milwaukee Art Museum transformed the architectural landscape of this city by opening an addition designed by visionary architect Santiago Calatrava. Ambitious architectural achievement, however, has long distinguished Milwaukee, which boasts grand civic buildings and impressive housing stock throughout its many neighborhoods. This book celebrates the Milwaukee Art Museum's long dedication to one of the city's most important architectural who created interiors for some of the grandest houses built in the upper Midwest in the early twentieth century. He worked with well-known architects such as George Elmslie, Frank Purcell, Frank Lloyd Wright and others whose work is now beloved for its ambition and modern innovation. Niedecken's greatest talent lay in his ability to combine the signature horizontality of these Prairie School architects with a wide range of other design influences from the American Arts and Crafts movement and the Vienna Secession to Renaissance and Tudor Revival styles.
The Museum has held the papers of the Niedecken-Walbridge Company in its Prairie Archives since 1975. Niedecken's successor, Robert L. Jacobson, along with his wife, gave the Museum...

"It is fitting that this exhibition of my father's drawings should open in Japan, for it was the art of the Japanese prints, especially the landscape prints of Hokusai and Hiroshige, that was such an important influence on his rendering techniques. As a boy, his father had him mat the prints he would bring back from Japan. While he was madding them, he would study the forms, proportion and color, the relationship of patterns, of space. The same study of form and color also carried through into his buildings..." Eric Lloyd Wright. (First Edition)

Author: Wright, Frank Lloyd
Description: After commissioning Wright to design his home in 1893, William Herman Winslow also charged him with the design of this book, which they printed together by hand. The text is a quintessential expression of Arts and Crafts philosophy, but the design, apart from its great emphasis on decoration does not follow the usual Arts and Crafts lines. Rather it shows the innovative brilliance of Wright, ahead of his time in bookwork, just as he was giving the lead in architecture. Published in: (Decorative Designs - Hanks, Pg 4), (Arch Rev 6/1900 pg 63), (Frank Lloyd Wright and the Prairie, Birk, Pg 77). This item was exhibited in Japan from January 2 - July 28, 1991 at four different museums as part of the exhibit titled "Frank Lloyd Wright Retrospective."

The above evolution of furniture design is outlined through more than a hundred depicted chairs, seating furniture and leading objects.

Description: Publisher's description: Published in conjunction with a major exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, this volume 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, it is a collection of sixteen scholarly explorations rather than a master narrative. Each essay "unpacks" a key object from the Archives nterpreting and contextualizing it, tracing its meanings and connections, juxtaposing it with other works. Among the projects discussed are Wright's quest to build a mile-high skyscraper, his little known project for a Rosenwald School for African American children, and his lifelong dedication to affordable and do-it-yourself housing. These and other explorations open Wright's work to fresh questioning, interpretation, and debate, so that we may consider this iconic figure in new and illuminating ways. 274 illustrations.

Title: Wright on Exhibit. Frank Lloyd Wright's Architectural Exhibitions (Hard Cover DJ) (Published by Princeton University Press, Princeton and Oxford)
Author: Smith, Kathryn
Description: "The first history of Frank Lloyd Wright's exhibitions of his own work a practice central to his career. More than one hundred exhibitions of Frank Lloyd Wright's work were mounted between 1894 and his death in 1959. Wright organized the majority of these exhibitions himself and viewed them as crucial to his self-presentation as his extensive writings. He used them to promote his designs, appeal to new viewers, and persuade his detractors. Wright on Exhibit presents the first history of this neglected aspect of the architect's influential career. Drawing extensively from Wright's unpublished correspondence, Kathryn Smith challenges the preconceived notion of Wright as a self-promoter who displayed his work in search of money, clients, and fame. She shows how he was an artist-architect projecting an avant-garde program, an innovator who expanded the palette of installation design as technology evolved, and a social activist driven to revolutionize society through design. While Wright's earliest exhibitions were largely for other architects, by the 1930s he was creating public installations intended to inspire debate and change public perceptions about architecture..."

Description: Published in conjunction with the Exhibition "Frank Lloyd Wright Between USA and Italy" .March 28 - July 1, 2018 at Pinacoteca Giovanni e Marella Agnelli, Turin, Italy. Curated by Jennifer Gray, the exhibition 'Frank Lloyd Wright Between USA and Italy" at Turin's Pinacoteca Agnelli is devoted to the drawings and designs of the famous American architect. Wright first visited Italy in 1910; there he would elaborate the ideals of a democratic architecture, closely connected to nature, that inspired his work and that of many Italian architects. In 1935 Edoardo Persico's thoughts on Wright precipitated a decades-long engagement with the theory of organic architecture and its implications for Italian culture. This exhibition catalogue details the relationship between Wright and Italy, from prairie houses and skyscrapers to public projects. (Publisher's description.) Text in Italian and English.

Foreword: We are pleased to present this retrospective of the architectural work by Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959), known as one of the great masters of modern architecture. This is the first such exhibition to be held in Japan in twenty-six years. Wright, an advocate of "organic architecture" in which nature and humans coexisted, left a magnificent legacy including Fallingwater and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum as one of the greatest American architects. The tremendous structures he created during a time of ongoing cultural and technological change feature vibrant ornament and distinctive forms, and demonstrate the innovative use of materials and construction methods. Wright's true acumen is evident in his futuristic vision expressed through architecture. Japan is the only country outside of the United States fortunate to have surviving buildings designed by Wright. It was also the country he had extraordinarily close ties with, not only as an architect but also as an avid ukiyo-e collector and dealer... (First Edition)
