Specificatii
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extensively from Wright's unpublished correspondence, Kathryn Smith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. The nature of his exhibitions
expanded with the times beyond models, drawings, and photographs to
include more immersive tools such as slides, film, and even a
full-scale structure built especially for his 1953 retrospective at
the Guggenheim Museum. Placing Wright's exhibitions side by side
with his writings, Smith shows how integral these exhibitions were
to his vision and sheds light on the broader discourse concerning
architecture and modernism during the first half of the twentieth
century. Wright on Exhibit features color renderings, photos, and
plans, as well as a checklist of exhibitions and an illustrated
catalog of extant and lost models made under Wright's supervision.
