Restoration of the Hollyhock House.
"The Wright Stuff. A Painstaking Restoration at Hollyhock House.
Restoring the living room of architect Frank Lloyd Wright's Hollyhock
House posed many riddles. What was the original color scheme? What were
the dimensions and detailing of the magnificent sofa? And where, or where, had the original sofas disappear to?
Sketches and old photographs of the historic house, built by the
eccentric Wright for the equally offbeat oil heiress, Aline
Barnsdall (who's favorite flower was the Hollyhock), offered
tantalizing clues . But it took curator Virginia Kazorand a crew
of preservationists more than a decade to uncover answers and raise
funds to restore just the living room of the city owned 1921
architectural treasure, one of the seven Frank Lloyd Wright houses
in the Los Angeles area. The room will be open to the public
Tuesday..." Includes four photographs of Hollyhock House.

Description: "The Stern
Shining Brow. At a curious kind of commune called Taliesin west,
Frank Lloyd Wright is the godhead and his widow is the high
priestess. Taliesin West is curiously disguised, as though by some
geological sleight-of-hand. Seen from the barren Taliesin road,
leading away from the tidy Phoenix suburb of Scottsdale, it looks
like just another rocky ridge of the McDowell Mountains, which rise
precipitously behind – red in the sun and strangely prehistoric.
Squeezed between the mountains in the empty desert, Taliesin West,
the headquarters of the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation in School of
Architecture, is a perfect projection of Wright’s philosophy of
architecture – a community growing from, yet subservient to, the
landscape with surrounds it..." Includes eight photographs.

"Building it Wright. Frank Lloyd Wright may be gone, but it's still
business as usual for the Wright-trained, Wright-groomed architects
at Taliesin West. Ironically, one of the Frank Lloyd Wright
Foundation's newest and biggest projects represent the long-delayed
birth of a dream Wright conceived at the beginning of the 20th
century... National Homes Corporation..." Includes two

surpassing all others 23 months ago when Svetlana Allilluyeva,
clinging to William Wesley peters arm, talked of the fragrances of
the Arizona orange trees and roses and the Black Sea summers of her
yesterdays. It is the warm, simple desert atmosphere I love, Josef
Stalin's daughter said of Taliesin West a few days before she and
the fellowships 59-year-old chief architect were married..."

Master Architect Frank Wright Dies. Phoenix, Ariz., April 9 – (AP) –
Colorful Frank Lloyd Wright, 89, (91) master architect who fashion a
world reputation for brilliant design, died in Saint Joseph's
Hospital here Thursday. Known as the "rebellious old gentleman" of
his profession, Wright entered the hospital Saturday and underwent
surgery Monday for removal of an intestinal obstruction. He appeared
to rest comfortably Wednesday night and physicians felt he was
progressing up to an hour before his death. "He just side and died,"
said Mrs. Jesse Baganno, nurse who was with him. Wright was the
center of controversy throughout his professional life. Many of his
designs were unusual an appearance and radical in engineering.
Stinging replies. Criticism of his plans drew stinging replies that
earned him almost as much fame as the buildings them selves. "Early
in life I had to choose between honest arrogance and hypocritical
humility," he said a few years ago. "I chose honest arrogance and
have seen no occupation OK Asian to change…" Original cover price
