Specificatii
In architectural terms, the twentieth century can be largely summed
up with two names: Frank Lloyd Wright and Philip Johnson. Wright
(1867-1959) began it with his romantic prairie style; Johnson
(1906-2005) brought down the curtain with his spare postmodernist
experiments. Between them, they built some of the most admired and
discussed buildings in American history. Differing radically in
their views on architecture, Wright and Johnson shared a restless
creativity, enormous charisma, and an outspokenness that made each
man irresistible to the media. Often publicly at odds, they were
the twentieth century's flint and steel; their repeated encounters
consistently set off sparks. Yet as acclaimed historian Hugh Howard
shows, their rivalry was also a fruitful artistic conversation, one
that yielded new directions for both men. It was not despite but
rather because of their contentious--and not always
admiring--relationship that they were able so powerfully to
influence history. In Architecture's Odd Couple, Howard deftly
traces the historical threads connecting the two men and offers
readers a distinct perspective on the era they so enlivened with
their designs. Featuring many of the structures that defined modern
space--from Fallingwater to the Guggenheim, from the Glass House to
the Seagram Building--this book presents an arresting portrait of
modern architecture's odd couple and how they shaped the American
landscape by shaping each other.
