| Titre : | Frank lloyd wright 1917-1942 | | Type de document : | texte imprimé | | Auteurs : | Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer, Auteur | | Editeur : | Taschen America | | Année de publication : | 2010 | | Importance : | 480p | | Présentation : | ill.; | | Format : | 31*40cm | | ISBN/ISSN/EAN : | 978-3-8365-0926-8 | | Langues : | Anglais (eng) | | Mots-clés : | wright | | Résumé : | Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) is widely considered the greatest American architect of all time; his work ushered in the modern era and remains highly influential today—half a century after his death. TASCHEN's three-volume monograph covers all his designs (numbering approximately 1100), realized and unrealized. Made in collaboration with the Frank Lloyd Wright Archives in Taliesin, Arizona, this collection leaves no stone unturned in examining and paying tribute to Wright's astonishing life and work.
Volume Two starts with the years spent working in Japan, mainly on the Imperial Hotel, and followed by personal turmoil; in late 1922, Wright divorced from first wife Catherine, and the following year married Miriam Noel. Yet barely six months later she left, initiating a bitter divorce. Shortly after, Wright met his third wife, Olgivanna. During this difficult period a second fire at Taliesin strained his already parlous finances; the bank foreclosed, leaving him without home or studio. With nowhere to practice, he started writing magazine articles, and his autobiography (published in 1932 to great acclaim).
