Title: Letter to William Dicus Bayley from Taliesin Fellowship. (Printed on Taliesin Fellowship letterhead. The design for the letterhead consisted of a horizontal line extending one-half inch past the fold. Two square dots, one past the end of the horizontal line, and one equally spaced below the end of it. Centered on the fold below is the Taliesin Fellowship logo, a variation of Frank Lloyd Wright red square. All printed in red. The logo was used throughout the first two prospectuses (S#2035 & 2036.) Printed on beige stock with the "Strathmore Envoy" watermark.)

Description: Text of letter: "W.D. Bailey: 234 E. Cassilly Street: Springfield: Ohio (Typed in Red). Dear Mr. Bailey: In case the notice concerning subscription to Taliesin's new monograph should not have reached you -- here is another: hoping you will yourself subscribe and perhaps interest a friend to fill out the first one we sent to you -- in case you still have it. Sincerely yours, the Taliesin Fellowship. Taliesin (Red). Spring Green: Wisconsin. April 16 (1934)." In 1932, Frank Lloyd Wright formed the Taliesin Fellowship with twenty-three apprentices who came to live, learn and work at Taliesin, in Spring Green. Bayley’s father, William Bayley, moved to Springfield in 1875 and was a prominent and influential figure in the civic and
industrial development of this city. He was born in Baltimore, Maryland on July 28 1845. On February 21, 1871 he married Mary E. Dicus. They had four sons: William D., Guy D., Lee and Elden, and one daughter, Mary. He formed The William Bayley Co., a national designer, engineer and manufacturer of commercial windows with offices in Springfield, Chicago, New York and Washington. He also was a designer and engineer and held a number of patents. His eldest son, William Dicus Bayley, recipient of this letter, followed in his father’s footsteps, became president of his father’s company, and also held a number of patents, one with his father. Although he never commissioned Wright to design a home, he must have been acquainted with Wright, hence this letter. He was also possibly familiar with the Burton Westcott Residence, Springfield, Ohio (1904 - S.099).

Title: Announcement. Taliesin Announces plans to publish the monograph "Taliesin" tri-weekly, seventeen times a year. (Published by The Taliesin Fellowship. Printed on the same stock and ink (red and black) as the prospectus "The Taliesin Fellowship," 1933 (S#2036).

Description: Text of announcement included in letter to Bayley: "Taliesin is planning to issue a characteristic monogram in text and pictures portraying the work and ideals of the Taliesin Fellowship. The publication will be somewhat in the format of this prospectus, doubled in content and will be mailed tri-weekly to subscribers. Seventeen numbers will make the yearly volume. Subscription five dollars per year. The work will be edited to present a specific view of the working out of the principles enunciated in this perspective. Each number will contain detailed plans, abstract designs and models of the work executed in the nature of materials in accord with those principles together with current news of events in the life of the Fellowship. Editorial matter related to the various arts and to social economics will appear from time to time. The first number will issue May 15, 1934. We hope that you are sufficiently interested in our work to become a subscriber to TALIESIN. By mailing a check for five dollars payable to Frank Lloyd Wright you will receive the magazine in due course. The monograph TALIESIN will carry no advertising material." The Taliesin Fellowships first prospectus was dated January 1, 1933 and printed in black ink on white stock (S#2035). The second prospectus was dated December, 1933 and printed in red and black ink on beige stock (S#2036). Taliesin I, No. 1 (S#2037) was not dated but published in 1934. The cover read in part "Nine Times a Year." Unfortunately, it was not published seventeen or nine times a year. The next issue of Taliesin was published in October 1940, again as Taliesin 1, No. 1 (S#2040). Two copies.

"Taliesin. Taliesin is the name because in Welsh tradition the word ‘Taliesin’ means ‘shining brow’ and was the name of the only British bard ever to sing the glories of fine arts: a Welsh name because of the Welsh ancestry of its master architect and owner – the founder and leader of the Taliesin Fellowship – Frank Lloyd Wright. The Taliesin Fellowship was established in the fall of 1932. It is not at all a school. Its work is culture, not education, and there is not curriculum..."

Title: The Taliesin Fellowship (Published by the Taliesin Fellowship, Spring Green, Wisconsin)

Author: Wright, Frank Lloyd

Description: A Prospectus For: The Taliesin Fellowship. In the Philosophy and Practice of Organic Architecture the Work of Frank Lloyd Wright at Taliesin Is Extended as the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation to Include Apprenticeships for about Thirty-five Young Men and Women.
       Apprentices Prepare Plans, Details and Models for Building Construction and Work upon Construction Going on Throughout the Country. All Share in the Tilling of Taliesin Farm Fields and Gardens and the Daily Upkeep Necessary to Their Own Way of Life at Taliesin. Work, Even While Resting, Is Essential.
        For twelve years past a small freely changing group of about thirty-five young men and women, volunteers (as all who come must be), have formed an energetic group of apprentices to myself. The over-educated novice meets at first with wholesome neglect in the hope that he may "relax" and give such natural perception as he may possess some benefit of the "break". He stands with the Fellowship of Apprentices, if he stands at all, in atmosphere free from pretense on native soil. Taliesin nourishes sincerity of character and purpose especially because Architecture is concerned. Responsibility in action stimulates whatever talent each apprentice may have.
       Genius is something from within which we can neither furnish nor gainsay.
       Our work is situated at Hillside in connection with five hundred acres of good ground and original buildings built in 1902-03. We are building other buildings. Already there is a spacious new draughting room, a little playhouse made out of the old Hillside Home School gymnasium, small galleries, model-libraries for intimate exhibitions, and a work-shop. We are continually making new plans and models. Taliesin itself is part of our equipment. We aim to have suitable living accommodations for everyone. For seven summer months of each year we are situated on acreage where Wisconsin is most lovable. For the five winter months we leave Wisconsin, taking our work along in order to keep working out of doors, getting fresh contacts with other soil and other scenes while we work. We go to an adequate camp and workshop created by ourselves on the grand Maricopa Mesa, twenty-six miles north-east of Phoenix, Arizona... Frank Lloyd
  Wright, Taliesin, Spring Green, Wisconsin.
       Inside spread is an illustration of Taliesin West, “Buildings in Arizona,” and Taliesin, Spring Green “The Taliesin Fellow...”

Title: he Personal Architectural Service of Frank Lloyd Wright (Published by the Taliesin Fellowship, Spring Green, Wisconsin)

Author: Wright, Frank Lloyd

Description: The Personal Architectural Service of Frank Lloyd Wright are available for ten percent of the cost of the completed building which invariably includes the planting of the grounds and major furnishings considered as part of the building scheme. The fee is the same for a million dollar building or for a five thousand dollar dwelling: divided in three parts as follows:
1)       3% of proposed cost of the building when preliminary studies are accepted. These however may be modified without additional charge until entirely satistactory to client and architect.

2)       5% additional for the working drawings and specifications payable when in the architect's estimation they are complete and ready for bids but with the understanding that should the building cost more than the client has stipulated or is willing to pay, the architect will modify the drawings to bring the costs within reason. Adjustment of this second portion of the fee is to be made when plans are approved by the owner or when contracts are let.
3)       2% to complete the fee of ten percent for the architect's supervision during con-struction. Payable from time to time during construction and when the building is completed to the client's satisfaction. A final adjustment of the fee according to the total cost of the completed building to bring the total tee of ten percent of completed cost exclusive of ground is to be made when requested by the architect...
       Before the architect proceeds with the design of any building an accurate topographical survey of the property showing all natural slopes and features such as rock outcroppings trees, etc. roads, neighboring buildings and service lines for water, sewer, gas and light together with a complete list of the client's requirements should be on record. Dwelling-houses upon urban lots will not be accepted. Acreage is indispensable.
       The services of Frank Lloyd Wright are exclusively owned by The Frank Lloyd Wright
Foundation.

Description: "Abstract Design by Eugene Masselink of The Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. The Stanford Art Gallery - April 1960. The major portion of this exhibition consists of preliminary drawings and photographs of architectural murals. As the composer has his systematic staff and intervals and the architect a modular system as the framework of design, just so has the designer the same means to coordinate abstract ornamentation with the architectural principles involved. Thus the square, the triangle, the circles as well as the straight line become a fundamental part of the design vocabulary." Two copies.

Author:

Description: The Prairie School Legacy of Frank Lloyd Wright. September 2, 2000 - January 7, 2001. The Minneapolis Institute of Arts, Minneapolis, Minnesota. "For more than twenty years, John Howe was known as ‘the pencil in Frank Lloyd Wright’s hand.’ As Wright’s chief draftsman at Taliesin from 1937 to 1959, Howe worked on such famous projects as the Johnson /wax Building in Racine, Wisconsin, the Unitarian ‘Church in Madison, Wisconsin, and the Guggenheim Museum in New York City. But Howe’s long association with Wright overshadowed his own significant achievements as an architect and designer... In Minnesota alone there are more than 80 Howe building, which are some of the finest examples of organic architecture in the Midwest." This is the first major presentation of drawings from the John Howe papers at the Northwest Architecture archives at the University of Minnesota. Includes seven illustrations and two photographs.

Title: A House for Life, Bringing the Spirit of Frank Lloyd Wright into your Home (Published by Warwick Publishing Inc., Toronto)

Author: Rattenbury, John

Description: Frank Lloyd Wright was arguably the greatest American architect of the 20th century. Many admire his memorable designs, such as the Guggenheim Museum in New York, but assume it would be far too costly to apply his ideas to their own homes. Yet it was one of Wright s central beliefs that modern homes could be both well-designed and affordable. This book shows how Wright s philosophy touched all aspects of day-to-day life, thus influencing his ideas for residential design. Numerous examples of homes designed by Wright and Taliesin Architects (the firm founded by Wright s students after his death) are presented in stunning photographs to inspire readers who wish to create their own unique home following Wright s "organic" concepts... John Rattenbury joined the Taliesin Fellowship in 1950, and was with the Taliesin Architects until 2003 (Publisher’s description.) Original list price $29.95. (First Edition)

Author: Marty, Myron A.

Description: "Despite the numerous studies of Frank Lloyd Wright’s life and architecture, little has been published about his life in relation to the communities that dominated his life. Wright, a fervent believer in individualism and an ardent advocate of democracy, worked in communities throughout his career of more than six decades. These communities, which he led with unquestioned authority, made possible his extraordinary productivity. They also helped sustain his genius, provided him with crucial social outlets, and made it possible for him to remain a creative force outside the mainstream of American architecture until his death at age 91. Almost immediately after arriving in Chicago in 1887, Wright began working in the company of architects and draftsmen, most notably Joseph Lyman Silsbee, Dankmar Adler, and Louis Sullivan..."

Title: Under the Skies. The Apprentice Desert Shelters At Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin West (Hard Cover DJ) (Published by Pomegranate Communications, Inc., Petaluma, CA)

Author: Pfeiffer, Bruce Brooks; Sidy, Victor E.

Description: Nestled among the cactus thickets and dry washes of the Arizona desert lies an intriguing landscape of architectural experiments. Sometimes encompassing a paloverde tree or suspended many feet above the desert floor, these small dwellings, conceived by architecture students as alternatives to tents and dormitory rooms, embrace - and in their own way, celebrate - the natural, rugged terrain surrounding Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin West. The earliest shelters were created by adventurous apprentices at the Taliesin Fellowship, a school for architects established by Frank Lloyd Wright in the mid-1930s. After Wright’s death, a more conventional school - the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture - was established, and the practice of designing and building a personal dwelling became a unique feature of the school’s curriculum. Wright insisted that there would be no armchair architects at his school; apprentices would learn through hard work and first-hand experience. The response to this directive has been astonishingly creative. In addition to honing their design and drafting skills, students comb the desert for dwelling sites; consider the effects of extreme temperature change and winter rain; gather construction materials from surrounding hills and dry riverbeds; and thoroughly explore what Wright termed organic architecture. Collected in Under Arizona Skies are photographs and architectural plans of the most exemplary student shelters built at Taliesin West, as well as personal accounts written by Victor E. Sidy, Dean of the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture, and Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer, Director of the Frank Lloyd Wright Archives... (Dust Jacket.) Original list price $24.95. (First Edition)

Title: Taliesin Diary, A Year With Frank Lloyd Wright (Hard Cover) (Published by W. W. Norton & Company, New York, London)

Author: Henken, Priscilla J.

Description: The first publication of the diary of a Frank Lloyd Wright apprentice, 1942–43, with notes, contextual essays, and contemporaneous photographs. Priscilla J. Henken lived at Taliesin with her husband David Henken as part of The Fellowship, the group of acolytes who made Taliesin an architectural colony from the 1930s through the 1950s. Her lively description of day-to-day life on a communal working farm in south central Wisconsin provides unique insights into the world of Wright during the period and will fascinate Wright enthusiasts as well as those with specialized interest in midcentury architecture; social and spiritual movements; and the clash of cultures represented by two socialist, Jewish New Yorkers and the Midwestern farm community at Taliesin. Henken vividly describes the daily program, from cooking duties to editing the great architect’s autobiography and watching films. (Publisher’s description.) 30 photographs.

Title: Frank Lloyd Wright’s Unfinished Work (Soft Cover) (Published by Two Worlds Community Foundation, Scottsdale, AZ)

Author: Swaback, Vernon D.

Description: This book began at the side of the man long called The World's Greatest Architect, and now our first green and ecological architect. Having been privileged to serve as Wright's youngest apprentice, Vernon Swaback combines that experience with his life-long work and study, integrating everything from history, economics, and science, to the arts, technology and religion. If a man born just two years after the civil war could so inspire and maintain the world's interest in his approach, imagine what the insights and technologies of the 21st Century could make possible if, in a Frank Lloyd Wright manner, they could be artfully integrated into a more beautiful and enriching way of life. While the world's museums and galleries celebrate the special achievements of design, the time has come to turn how we live into our greatest works of art. Not only is this possible, there is no longer any other sustainable option. Frank Lloyd Wright's Unfinished Work is about living at a time of urgent joy. Urgent because we are unwittingly attacking the very essence of our own existence. Joyful because we are on the verge of becoming co-creators with the nature of life itself, all of which depends on broadening our appreciation for the holistic power of design.

Title: John H. Howe, Architect. From Taliesin Apprentice to Master of Organic Design (Hard Cover DJ) (Published by the University of Minnesota Press, Minneapolis)

Author: Hession, Jane King; Quigley, Tim; Foreword by Pfeiffer, Bruce Brooks

Description: Dust jacket: "In 1932 nineteen-year-old John H. Howe arrived at Taliesin as a charter member of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin Fellowship. There he would remain for the next thirty-two years, earning a reputation as the pencil in Wright’s hand before establishing his own architectural practice in Minnesota. This is the first book to tell Howe’s story and also the first full account of his place in the history of modern architecture as chief draftsman and valued interpreter of Wright s designs and as a prolific architect in his own right. Illustrated throughout with Howe’s sublime drawings, this biography is a testament to the underappreciated architect’s extraordinary design and rendering skills. Influenced by Wright’s principles of organic architecture, Howe operated under the conviction that the land is the beginning of architecture. Architectural historians Jane King Hession and Tim Quigley show how this belief worked especially well for Howe in Minnesota, where his buildings appear to have grown naturally and organically from the landscape..."

AT TALIESIN
   
Date: 1934

Title: At Taliesin, August 3, 1934. Carbon Copy of an article written by Bob Mosher on August 3, 1934.

Description: According to Randy Henning, At Taliesin, p.66, "Frank Lloyd Wright began his practice of giving informal talks to the fellowship during these early at Taliesin years. They were on Tuesday evenings within the newly completed Dana gallery at hillside..." This lecture would have been given Tuesday July 24, "A week ago Tuesday evening in the Dana Gallery..." Possibly unpublished.

Dana Gallery Lectures.

Pine As Pine.

In 1903 at Jane Addam's Hull House in Chicago a paper was read by Mr. Wright challenging all Romantic efforts to escape from the realities of a modern machine world and objecting to the formation of a Society of Arts and Crafts to perpetuate the pseudo-medieval dreams of Morris and Ruskin. This meeting became famous all over the world as a prophecy of the part the machine might play but which it still does not play in our architecture. Disturbing all but not understood by all that speech is stilt prophetic, still a new lesson for all the architectural world steeped in eclecticism, in revivals of dead styles and in world's fair artificialities.
       Since that time Taliesin has become world famous because of its integrity in carrying out the ideal of an organic architecture, of an architecture that lives and moves and has its being as a living entity, functioning for its purpose, truly fulfilling the Hull House prophecy.
       A week ago Tuesday evening in the Dana Gallery of the Taliesin Fellowship, the first of a series of weekly lectures was given by Mr. Wright. The spirit of the spoken words harked back to Hull House. They were as prophetic. It wasn't so much architecture this tine with its relation to the machine but it was a good sound thrashing administered to the thing now called "art" music, painting,
sculpture, et al, included. The Western culture of our modern times if it can be termed "culture" - contains no recognition of the factors that express its art. The word "art" still means something academic and stylistic: dead or sterile. This study of what it is that makes a Pine a Pine or an Oak just an Oak was never cherished. The thought that there is something deeper for the artist in the pine tree then its mere aspect has never been grasped. And so with everything that constitutes what we call nature. The oriental mind centuries ago recognized this in-dwelling quality of nature, the Japanese word "edaburl" means that quality which makes a Pine a Pine and not an Oaks when this Pine or Oak or whatever the chosen object might be was recorded by way of this study of edaburl it was nearly always for some purpose by way of some medium, the brush, the wood-block print, lacquer or carving. And it was seldom a mere representation of that pine but was an Interpretation of it. Pine Nature. No attempt to copy to make the drawing more alluring than the original but by interpreting the essence or form-nature of the chosen subject-they were able to obtain a result that was more Pine than the pine itself. The pine soul was revealed by the work of the artist, The Orientals realized that in this realm of the abstract (the geometry behind the aspect) was the highest form of beauty and therein the only way to see and interpret nature. That to interpret nature in terms of materials and process was the artist's functions not to imitate it: to catch its essence, its essential nature on its entirety and express it in rhythmic forms useful to life by way of any chosen medium in art or craft. Thus was the ultimate abstraction formed by the best minds of the greatest artists of all time.
       So, to us, the future of painting and all the other arts must lie in this realm of the abstract. Not "cubism" or "anglism", those are styles or prolonged fads, but painting as architecture fitting all the principles of an organic architecture, structurally sound, a structure itself as rhythmic and harmonious music-architecture. The world is full of the so-called easel-palating, not-so-pretty pictures which can never have any use in this modern world. This poetizing from the aspect is all of the past. Nature "effects" copied-playing with the aspect -is in itself futile, even if it be a pleasing accomplishment. But there is no valid basis in human need or purpose for such lascivious pleasings. It is artistic and therefore, futile. Of what use to mankind is it? What of profound value does it give to life? Nothing. A Cezanne as a study in volume or any other "volume" seeker in the graphic arts has little importance today. The photographer has developed his technique so that he can do "volume" much better, with more actuality, making the thing re-live by way of his reproductive process. Or call in the sculptor. Modern recordings by way of sight or sound l l move in the direction to supplant the artist. So far has it gone the machine has already largely replaced the human-artist of the past or present. Not only does the cinema today make nature relive but human nature in the hands of an Elsen-stein or a Rene Clair becomes more than a reproduction of scene and story, it becomes itself an abstraction of a quality that makes Rene Clair's Frenchmen more French than the French themselves. A deep inner quality is brought to the surface even in this mechanical reproductions. The painter can't much longer hope to compete with such facilities and what an accomplishment this new matter of sight and sound recordings is. It throws all the sham artists completely out of the picture in order that the truth will out and an organic sense of the whole replace the gesture or the sham.
       Nature by way of interpretation can be expressed in any medium for any purpose at all and be so built. Then art becomes legitimate, a benefit to mankind. The beauty of nature interpreted with all the powers of imagination and made available for use in our way of "life" by modern materials and the modern process takes art out of the academy and boudoir into the light and the open air as of the ground; An enrichment of nature for the environment and practice of modern life.
       But the dear people will not soon see this. Such words serve only to hurt personal vanities as those Hull House words did twenty nine years ago and still do. Perhaps ten years later these prophetic words about art and the artist in our Tuesday lectures will be realized but perhaps only by the few even then. Time flies for all but ignorance, Perhaps ignorance alone is eternal.

Title: At Taliesin, August 9, 1934. Carbon Copy of an article written by Eugene Masselink on August 9, 1934.

Description: According to Randy Henning, At Taliesin, August 2, 1934, p.66, "Frank Lloyd Wright began his practice of giving informal talks to the fellowship during these early ‘At Taliesin’ years. They were on Tuesday evenings within the newly completed Dana gallery at hillside..." This lecture would have been given Tuesday August 7, "...Mr. Wright’s lecture last night to the Fellowship, the second in the series of Tuesday evening sessions in Dana Gallery." Eugene Masselink entered the fellowship in October 1933 and continued until his death in 1962. He is buried at Taliesin. This article was most likely unpublished. Page 1: Taliesin.
       To record, even accurately, a lecture by Frank Lloyd Wright is to produce something on paper that has meaning and power when read, but, like the unplayed score for orchestra, has lost the subtle beauty, dynamic force and a potential significance which only the master himself can give it. Useless therefore to adequately reproduce Mr. Wright’s lecture last night to the fellowship, the second in the series of Tuesday evening sessions in Dana gallery.
       Choosing to speak on the interrelation of space and structure, Mr. Wright, after first commenting on the abstract drawings that had been brought in by the fellows – made during the past week, turned to the Unity Temple, a photograph of which was on the wall, this being the first time that space was consciously brought into the interior and building was conceived as space. Unity Temple has no walls. It is a monolithic structure, the wall planes and ceiling surface so constructed that they allow light and space to flow in and out freely. The Jones House is a further and the latest development of this principle; walls in this house, have vanished. The enclosure is made by palisaded screens...
       A little more discussion and the splendid lecture was summed up with the great principle of Louis Sullivan, ‘Lieber Meister’. ‘Form follows function’. Taliesin goes further to say ‘form follows function – out of the nature of materials’.

       Dana Gallery Lectures. #2.
       Space As Architecture.
       The second of a series of Tuesday Evening lectures given by Mr. Wright in the Dana Gallery of the Taliesin Fellowship started off on the continuous interweaving process of the working principles of an organic architecture. By taking any one of these basic principles as a start and by analyzing the concepts given in these, the talks become continuous, as these concepts are related to each other and lead from one into another. These concepts and the working out of an organic architecture take in all the recources (sic) of the intuition and the mind. Physical limitations limit any physical expression of the ideal but those very limitations when understood work hand in hand with organic principles in enlarging the realm of ideas and making their practice in the arts practical.
       Glass, for instance is narrowly a material of fixed limitations because of its physical properties and yet glass, along with steel, is a basic element in liberating space, seen as architecture. Had the ancients had it, the Classical forms we now adopt and adopt would never have been born. The moderns have this new means to great ends but their power of reasoning and the uncommon sense necessary have been lost somewhere down the line of the machine age.
        Pseudo, architects continue to copy Pagan Rome, merely the face is lifted in nearly everything they do or can do. The architects who call themselves modern and build skyscrapers are still the medieval sculptor carving pieces of statuary but now in the form of masonry skyscrapers, domed court houses, carved Colonial boxes, and Cardboard world fairs. The plain surface with a dab of color and no sense of overhead shelter is called modernistic!
        All this so called modernism is not organic architecture. In fact it all completely denies our modern resources, There is a huge difference between the ideal of an organic architecture as practiced at Taliesin and the self styled modern, The "modern" is something of a tad exploiting technical progress. Organic architecture is a living entity knowing no time limit. A time piece of organic Architecture is always great though no longer serviceable in point of time. Therefore timeless.
        Glass as a super material has enabled us to newly conceive architecture as enclosure of space. Glass as a material resource immediately does away with the sculptural masonry box punched full of window holes and fitted with pigeon holes as rooms, that we call Classic. Walls need no longer be solid walls, they become screens or the features of space enclosure, walls as walls have vanished, windows are no longer holes in walls but are also movable screens it too, a means of enclosure but opening to an infinite space letting the sense of interior space come through, and the sense of space without come in. All building is first a shelter, of what better use is any structure than for human protection and shelter. The sense of shelter will always characterize the best buildings of our period, or any period,.
        Unity Temple back in 1906 was the first working out in concrete form of this new sense of architecture as interior space to be lived in under shelter, the space merely closed in by an arrangement of utilitarian features and screens. The sense of space coming through to be felt and seen as reality of the building. The Jones House in Tulsa is the most recent example of this "space Freedom". Glass and concrete, the only materials comprising the entire structure, used by process of alternation of the two materials; Vertical pieces of concrete and glass. This new space approach to the problems of building leads the way to infinite opportunities for valid new forms in our modern materials and machine-made lives. It is all a new freedom and a new freedom that can't stop with architecture.

Description: In Randy Henning’s Introduction to this article he writes, "It is been well documented that the Japanese print was an important inspiration and love of Frank Lloyd Wright. He shared his vast collection of prints and rare oriental artifacts with the Fellowship often through talks and exhibits; even integrating many two- and three-dimensional priceless pieces within the very walls a Taliesin in Hillside…" Published in At Taliesin, September 19, 1934, p.76-78. William Bernoudy entered the fellowship in October 1932 and continued until 1935.
        Page 1: "Japanese Prints. Japanese prints were a mirror of the popular life in scenes of the daily existence of the Japanese and today they are the only record we have of the Japanese life at that great period which began with the Momoyama and prevailed through the succeeding period up to 1840. Japanese literature does not portray the common life and their culture in the fine arts they themselves a tribute to China. This is not true in the form of popular art we called the Japanese print. The Ukloye or mirror of the floating world is a characteristic art, largely so because it was not academic but came out of the ground by way of the people themselves.
       The paper upon which the prints are made contribute greatly to their charm. It possesses a luminous, soft quality that is stained rather than coated, the ink and color merely kissing the surface of the carved blocks. The key block, carved with raised lines, is printed first, the linear design is printed in black. Some of the later color prints employed the use of a dozen or more subsequent wood blocks, a different block for each color...

        "We call ourselves a ‘family’ but we are in reality very much greater than any family is or could be. A normal American family must be very like my own – a kindly not too indulgent father – a loving and over solicitious mother and as many brothers and sisters as you want or don't want to fill in. We lived in a routine and uncloistered life. Happy enough to travel the broad middle road and never much time for thought of anything beyond the scheduled activity and little discussion of anything beyond superfluiyies. I suppose family life universally is more or less this – we all of us have grown up in such surroundings – have loved and have been loved. But-now-all of a sudden we have entered the most simple most natural-in fact so simple and so natural as to be the most extraordinarily family in the world.
        The natural pattern-no longer a cut and dried routine-of our daily life as a Fellowship: the purpose- the principal – which makes this life a complete unity and therefore an organic life; the ideal and work to which we have all come to of own accord – all of this binds us together, strong and weak, under the guidance – leader ship and inspiration of a parentage that makes our family if not a holy family then a most magnificent unholy one...

        My subject today is purpose; a clean-cut term which deserves a direct and simple treatment. Unfortunately the broad interpretation that has grown up with the word is not acknowledged in the dictionary definition. For there it is a limited quality. Webster defines purpose as; that which one sets before himself as an object to be attained. If we were to hold rigidly to such a definition, purpose in life would be the last thing desirable, the word direction would be in infinitely more comprehensive and the quality more the element to be sought than a purpose or a series of purposes that invite achievement...

       Page 1:
       The first of the two types of Obedience we have known all our lives--- the obedience of occasion, discipline of the moment. Rightly or wrongly the first lesson of the child is to learn to obey. There are a great many "you mustn't do that's", there are even more punishments for having done that. Each problem that arises is met by the child and the mother. The interests are not the same but the young one learns pretty well the grade that is expected. If the grade is not reached it must appear to have been Deceit, Jealousy, and misunderstanding clog the running. From the mothers point of view the child is being conditioned she knows, perhaps in which direction she wishes her child to go, but without the understanding her children meet the day leap by leap and often hop in the wrong direction. This kind of obedience is perhaps keeping the frost in the ground until it is safe for us to awake.
       We are still at times given direct commands to do things but for me the idea has undergone a complete change. At Taliesin a read has been pointed out. Social inertia, personal procrastination and therefore discipline, but no longer in the short sighted subjective way.
       Now as obedience to an idea, as truth to oneself, no longer does each problem require a different set of tools to work with, there has been a natural progression in our lives- ties have been broken but that does not mean that everything that has gone before was useless or even laughable. If there is any true continuity in the world a human being is that thing. "Many things are weeds to those not mindful of the workings of the universe". The retrospective should play no part in our lives unless it is treated in the light of experience to make the road ahead a little clearer. Things that are "out of drawing", or not apparent all at once, it is in obedience... Acquired from the estate of Cary Caraway.

       Ever since ancient times, as soon as a Hebrew boy arrives at the age of thirteen he is admitted into the tribe as a man with the duties and responsibilities of a man – and on that important occasion he is privileged to ascend the pulpit in the synagogue and chant certain passages and to read aloud a portion of the Torah and then has the honor of making a speech address to his parents and the congregation.
       I am at this moment reminded of that very colorful ceremony. About in the middle of the service there comes a time when the Torah is taken out of the Ark and the Rabbi and the Cantor, the latter carrying the Torah descends down into the congregation chanting certain passages for you.

       Prudence, it has been said, is the virtue of the senses or the symbol that makes apparent our inner natures. And therefore as a science of appearances it cannot be detached for if detached it does not reveal the life of the Soul in the body. Prudence recognizes the presence of higher forces in its attempt to comply with the laws of time, space, climate, want, sleep, and death. To strengthen our bodies we comply with physical conditions around us- we accept weather, food and sleep as limitations-and to train our minds we must respect the laws of the intellect. It is a give and take proposition for if we care for the intellect alone or as some artists do-use their art as an excuse for intemperance, nature punishes our bodies. A great man's art never taught him intemperance. On the other hand if we think only of bodily development our minds become sluggish and laggard. There is a spurious prudence that believes the senses to be final wheras (sic) true prudence fixes its limitation upon sensualism by admitting that there is within us a real nature.
       I am not prudent for though I recognize intellectual values my reading is niggardly, my conversation too often of trifles. And though I understand the physical needs of my body I sacrifice its care in my enthusiasm for other pleasures. Then too, prudence consists of the integration of ones actions and beliefs. If you believe only in spiritual values don't grope at sensual pleasure. I dislike seeing animals killed, yet I imprudently keep a deerskin in my room and my coasts are trimmed with fur. Neither am I prudent in making money spend well nor in conversation. A friend wrote to me saying, "You are too hasty in answering certain people, being sarcastic and unintentionally intimidating or cutting.
       But on consideration of important questions you act wisely: looking ahead." another friend says, "A prudent man is one who exercises utmost... Acquired from the estate of Cary Caraway.

Title: Edgar Tafel, At Taliesin, March 27, 1935.

Description: Carbon Copy of an article written by Edgar Tafel. Frank Lloyd Wright - Should Madison City Hall Be Torn Down.
       A few days ago, while we were all working on the Broadacre Model, Mr. Wright walked out into the Patio with a letter in his hand that he wished to read us. Most often, these letters are from curious people, or people curiously interested in architecture. However, all these letters are interesting and informing to us, since we are removed from civilization and "The Public". The letter was from a Madison citizen asking architectural advice. That was curious. Madison, with a master at close range, hardly makes use of his services. The Madison citizen wanted to know which side of the city Hall tearing-down question Mr. Wright would be on. It seems as if Madison wants to show some progress, and presumably the quickest way is to show progress is to tear down landmarks.
       We asked Mr. Wright what he thought of ripping down the little sand stone building. Naturally, Mr. Wright’s answer was vigorous. He thinks Madison should keep it, and tear down most of its other buildings. The city Hall, unispiring (sic) as it may be, is a straightforward simple, dignified structure. It's lean Gothic tracery. The long narrow windows and the high ceilings, are distinguished, Tho it belongs to a period which has little to do with Wisconsin's soil or customs. There is a spirit of repose in its native stone. The building does not force itself upon the populace, or try to be anything that it isn't. One only needs to look across the street at the Capitol building, and see why the City Hall should stand, if many of the buildings are to stand.
       One could feel at home in the City Hall as he is dressed, but he would have to wear a Roman Toga for the same effect in the Capitol building. There are too few good buildings down by the ecclectics. Now Madison has a chance to keep one, even though it's face doesn't shining so brightly. If the building is to be torn down, how about the Roman bath across the street.

Title: Edgar Tafel. The Small House in Broadacre City. Circa 1935.

Description: Carbon Copy of an article written by Edgar Tafel. Construction of the Broadacre model begin in November 1934. It was crafted by the apprentices who worked with him at Taliesin. It was financed by Edgar Kaufmann. Broadacre City was 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 and a full model 12 by 12 feet in size, of Broadacre City itself, complete with tiny forests, homes, schools, factories, farms, and more. Kaufmann then arranged to have the model displayed in Pittsburgh. The exposition opened on June 18 on the 11th floor of Kaufmann's store.

The Small House in Broadacre City.
       In the past, the small house that attempted to solve the low cost housing need, was an attempt to copy almost anything that wasn’t in its own price class. In Europe, the architects squeezed bits of the large features of the expensive houses, into a scrawney (sic) meager homestead. The Internationalists designed boxes, supplying the cold bare necessities. In America, the "subsistence" crime is quite evident.
The houses are neither cheap enough, nor made in fulfillment of their needs. They still copy the colonial, the five-holed facade still exists, the ornament is still there-but more scarce. They are building a cheap house. The owner knows he owns a cheap house, and knows its depreciation. The old building methods don't fit the new need.
       The Broadacre City small house-or minimum house-is designed with large scale prefabrication production in mind-and this does not mean repetition. The house is planned on a convenient unit system and size, simple enough in setup so that any craftsman couldn't go wrong. With this unit of construction, an inexpensive house can be built to fit an individual need.
       A large portion of the cost of the small house is eliminated by a standardized central utility stack, which provides the house with heater, kitchen and bath appurtenances. This is the only part of the minimum house that is necessarily uniform throughout the Broadacre City. Otherwise, the small houses are unlimited in design. There are three roof types; the Gable, Hip, and Flat. The flat roof is intended for the plains, but up on the slopes, the Pitched roof house will lend itself to the different geological condition. The minimum house, after built, is still capable of being enlarged by adding units of construction.
       At last, the owner of the low cost house can be proud of his home. For it is straightforward, simple, according to his means, and has every feeling of the home. His children sleep in the open sleeping porch and dress in their individual closets. The master has his own workshop, and garage nearby. The kitchen is light and airy, removed from the living room by a low screen. The total area of the house is small, the sense of space is unlimited. The quality of materials is as fine as in any of the larger houses. Essentially the only difference between the Broadacre large and small houses, is size, not quality.

       Yes, we have recently been accused of Russian Propaganda at the Taliesin Playhouse. We sincerely are interested in the art of the cinema as we are in other arts and to leave Russia out of our widening horizon would be like throwing Hamlet out of Hamlet because we didn't like Hamlets.
       Facts are there is no possible threat to America from Japan. I have lived and worked there myself long enough to know that. I am not so sure we are no threat to Japan.
       As for Russia – a guilty conscience alone could make the sincere Russian experiment resemble a menace to our Free people.
       Ourselves, the greatest propagandist on Earth (the English excepted) – we overrate propaganda naturally and are suspicious of it – just as naturally. But, why not see that Russian art is genuine and, because it is so, those issues by which Russians now live or die are engaging their attention and have become the subject matter of their art--cinema included? So why be suspicious and offended? If we were artistes at heart the same thing would be true of us and to some little extent it is true.
       One of our "Westerns" is as much propaganda, in this sense, as a "Soviet" film. The Soviet propagandizes – what do you suppose they propagandize – WORK. Our films propagandize anything but that.
       We at Taliesin are Interested in becoming citizens of this world not partisans of some little corner of it and so we try to widen our horizon of appreciation of life everywhere life is going forward in it... (End of Page 1)

       Page One: "Tea Time at Taliesin.
       There is an old English custom – or, is it ‘fashion’ over [in] Europe – I speak of ‘Afternoon Tea.’ Tee time at Taliesin comes like most well ordered teas, at about four o'clock. Most of the time, tea time is on time. However, if tea isn't on time, it is quite naturally after time, but it really doesn't matter, because we continue our work until the ten bell rings, that is, unless we have a watch. The tea bell by the way, is the rising, breakfast, dinner, and supper bell merely rung at tea time. This bell, besides calling us together for social and bodily sustenance has another deeper and more profound significance; it marks the close of the manual labor day and the commencement of the studio period during which the ‘higher’ arts are pursued. However, if we eliminate the days in spring at Taliesin when emergency work confronts the Fellowship, (at which time the hours of physical labor sometimes continue for far into the night or at least until supper time) and we eliminate the several who have special chores, and those few who are waiting for the spirit to move them, one can really see that the rush for the studio drafting tables is seldom as upsetting as it might be..."

The silliest scares gratuitously handed out to Americans today are the "Red Menace", ergo Russia, and the "Yellow Peril", ergo Japan.

       Some People regard Taliesin and its Fellowship as an establishment. As time goes on the tendency grows to regard Taliesin as less and less the home of a creative architect and more and mores some kind of education al institution.
       Really it is no more like an institution than it was like one when Frank Lloyd Wright built it as a place in which to live and work. The apprenticeship then was never more than ten. Even with enlarged facilities at present apprenticeship will never be more than thirty. At one time the danger of institution loomed ahead. That was in the days when the first Taliesin prospectus was issued.
       But the danger soon became apparent and the plans of that date were discarded. Others were made intended to preserve individuality, flexibility, and original integrity or let us say, the integrity or originality that primarily characterized Taliesin.
       Taliesin will never be "established" nor well it ever be an institution. Nor will it become a popular success in any way while Frank Lloyd Wright lives. It will remain as it is - a slowly growing propaganda for creative work- its founder and owner on "one end of the log" whatever group may gather there on the other end in conference. But more especially it is a place in which to work together with him. Nevertheless Taliesin has a tradition. Perhaps the only cultural tradition America can call its own. That tradition is the birth and growth on American soil of the philosophy and ideals of an organic architecture.
        To live this is to live completely but are, more or less at the mercy of misunderstanding and prejudice which must have its "social rebels."
       Nor is the Taliesin Fellowship in any danger of becoming a mere cult. It Its leader despises "cults" too much for that to happen.
        So to regard Taliesin as an individual attempt to grow the creative artists America so sorely needs, a need developed rather than satisfied by her academic systems is to get Taliesin properly into focus and be able to understand its aims and the essential simplicity that characterizes them and the life lived there.
       Taliesin is so American in spirit as to be un-American in method and where technique is concerned it is already making a new technique. One it can call its own... (End of Page 1)

       Two weeks ago the Taliesin Fellowship had at its Playhouse the great Russian film, ‘The New Gulliver ‘. The producers saw in this famous adventure of Gulliver and the Lilliputians a likeness to the great adventure Russia is now undertaking with its people and so proceeded to bring this symbolization forcefully to her own people by means of a film.
       Last Sunday evening the subject of the coming presidential election came into discussion. The discussion following a vote among the Fellowship as to whom they will vote and found the group to be definitely for Roosevelt, seeing him as one who has actually tried to promote progressive changes in favor of the people.

       Each apprentice has his turn of two weeks in the kitchen. After all, an architect must know what goes on in a kitchen and the best way to find out is to have to try it out. Some apprentices dislike this work very much – some even consider it the hardest task of all. Others do not mind it so much, and enjoy the coordination required and get a kick out of the last minute excitement, ringing the bell, and seeing everyone hurry in to clamor for the fruits of their morning’s scullery service. Others-fewer-take real pleasure in experiencing with foods, flavors, seasoning and occasionally involve new ways of preparing familiar dishes, or proudly repeating those with which they have formally had success with me even be known as their own.
       After the stimulation of 25 hungry people asking for second helpings and watching the line of dessert dishes grow shorter and shorter and finally disappear then comes the pause when we in the kitchen survey the empty pots and kettles and have to face the fact that there are dishes to do.

Description: Page 1: "On diplomacy.
To disentangle a sound definition from an unsound term is difficult, and there is a category of words whose explanation requires a certain delicacy in the way it is approached. The word diplomacy may be taken from such a category, being typically covered by a moss of meaning and interpretation that has concealed the aspects of the rock word underneath. Or, oppositely, it may be concluded that I, instead of finding the rock itself, I have covered it with more moss. But in general, diplomatic actions may be spoken of as ways of least resistance in the relationships of man and man, man and substance, and possibility, relationship between substance and substance. Diplomatic overture of any kind, conscious or unconscious, is basically a selfish means to a beneficent end. There's a little matter as to whether the object upon which these overtures be bestowed is animate or otherwise; one finds it tactful not to walk barefoot on broken glass. And so it is that one avoids that more jagged ends of experience with human beings... " Page two refers to a "Lynch," possibly Kevin Lynch (1937-1939). Unsigned.

SNOW FLAKE MOTEL
   




Date: Circa 1955

Title: Snow Flake Motel, Project Circa 1955. Aerial perspective of Snow Flake Motel.

Description: Text bottom left corner, "Snow Flake." Red Square. Copy photograph of illustration. Published in "The Art of Frank Lloyd Wright, Krasl Art Center," Scott Elliot, 1994. Caption: "Aerial perspective of Snow Flake Motel, St. Joseph, Michigan, Ca. 1955. Pencil and pastel on brown tissue, 36 x 60 inches." In a recent e-mail from Scott Elliott, "Mrs. Sarkesian, the wife of the original client, confirmed that it (the drawing) was done in 1955. It's sometimes hard to tell who the actual draughtsman was by the mid 50s. Could be Peterson or Howe. Sometimes Wright just added trees, foliage and other atmospherics. Of course, he would have considered it entirely his, and rightly so. I happen to think this one could be all or mostly by his hand." From 2006: According to Scott Elliott: "(He) believes the Snowflake Motel in Lincoln Township was designed by famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright, contrary to what most people think. Many people believe the building was designed around 1960 by William Wesley Peters of Taliesin Associates. Peters was Wright's son-in-law and a draftsman for Wright. But Elliott has a detailed drawing from Wright's office showing the Snowflake Motel, and said that drawing was completed around 1955. Elliott said Sahig and
Christina Sarkisian, the original owners of the Snowflake, approached Wright around 1955 to design the motel. A lack of financing delayed the project until the early 1960s, he said. Wright died in 1959.... Elliott... said he bought the drawing from one of the Snowflake owners in the late 1980s or early 1990s. The owner told him the Sarkisians had first approached Wright's office around 1955, and that's when the drawing was made." As far as absolutely unquestionable proof, I don't have that," Elliott said. "It's what I would say is a very reliable oral history."Elliott said it's likely that Peters took credit for the design when he completed the commission. Peters may have been the original draftsman, though Elliott said he thinks it's "far more likely" that chief draftsman Jack Howe did that work. Peters' later drawings of the building are marked differently, and the drawing is "clearly from an earlier period," Elliott said."I believe absolutely certainly that this is an original Wright concept and design," Elliott said. "But even if all this weren't true … the concept, the design is so good and so pure in terms of following Wright's principles and ideas. There isn't an idea anywhere (in the design) that doesn't stem from Wright's design philosophy." The Herald Palladium, St. Joseph, Michigan, William F. Ast III, January 21, 2006.

Sarkisian got the idea to consult Wright from his friend Carl Schultz, who had just moved into his new residence in St. Joseph designed by the architect. The extent of Wright's direct involvement in the design remains unclear, but he is said to have flown over the proposed site and approved it . (1) (Interview with Carlene Lymburner. who with her husband purchased the Snow Flake from Sarkisian in 1979. 1 December 1997.) ...Sarkisian signed the contract with Taliesin Associated Architects in June 1960, and Peters signed the complete set of plans and specifications on 30 August. Construction finally began in the summer of 1961, and the eye-catching hostelry, now called the Snow Flake Motel, opened for business the following year."
       But, according to Scott Elliott: "(He) believes the Snowflake Motel in Lincoln Township was designed by famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright, contrary to what most people think. Many people believe the building was designed around 1960 by William Wesley Peters of Taliesin Associates. Peters was Wright's son-in-law and a draftsman for Wright. But Elliott has a detailed drawing from Wright's office showing the Snowflake Motel, and said that drawing was completed around 1955. Elliott said Sahig and Christina Sarkisian, the original owners of the Snowflake, approached Wright around 1955 to design the motel. A lack of financing delayed the project until the early 1960s, he said. Wright died in 1959.... Elliott... said he bought the drawing from one of the Snowflake owners in the late 1980s or early 1990s. The owner told him the Sarkisians had first approached Wright's office around 1955, and that's when the drawing was made." As far as absolutely unquestionable proof, I don't have that," Elliott said. "It's what I would say is a very reliable oral history. "Elliott said it's likely that Peters took credit for the design when he completed the commission. Peters may have been the original draftsman, though Elliott said he thinks it's "far more likely" that chief draftsman Jack Howe did that work. Peters' later drawings of the building are marked differently, and the drawing is "clearly from an earlier period," Elliott said."I believe absolutely certainly that this is an original Wright concept and design," Elliott said. "But even if all this weren't true … the concept, the design is so good and so pure in terms of following Wright's principles and ideas. There isn't an idea anywhere (in the design) that doesn't stem from Wright's design philosophy." The Herald Palladium, St. Joseph, Michigan, William F. Ast III, January 21, 2006. Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer does not list the Snow Flake Motel in "Frank Lloyd Wright, Complete Works 1943-1959," 2009.

Description: Designed by William Wesley Peters in 1960, construction began in 1961, and opened for business in 1962. According to the National Registry of Historic Places: "Around 1958, Sahag Sarkisian. a wealthy oriental rug dealer in St. Joseph . approached Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin Fellowship (which became Taliesin Associated Architects after Wright's death) about designing a unique luxury motel for his recently purchased property... Sarkisian got the idea to consult Wright from his friend Carl Schultz, who had just moved into his new residence in St. Joseph designed by the architect. The extent of Wright's direct involvement in the design remains unclear, but he is said to have flown over the proposed site and approved it...” Scott Elliot contends that Frank Lloyd Wright designed the Motel in 1955. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1998, but demolished in 2006. Photographed by Carol M. Highsmith.

Description:
"Taliesin. Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow. Long before Scottsdale was anything more than a crossroads town with a few stores, a bar, and a gas station or two, a bold new experiment in desert architecture was beginning to take shape at the base of the McDowell Mountains to the north. About 13 miles from the outskirts of town at the end of a dusty trail which wound its way upward along a dry wash, young men and women were busy building a complex of stone and concrete walls with fabric roofs unlike any structures ever before seen..."
