FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT: THE LEGACY
OF A VISIONARY
As a young architect, Frank Lloyd Wright set about to establish
his own vision of a distinctly American style of architecture.
After Wright’s period of work in Japan and after experiencing
personal scandal and tragedy, his career struggled and he
set a new course for his practice, establishing an architecture
school and experimenting with new forms of housing. He had
a special connection with the Western part of the United States
that embodied a symbolic interaction between art, humans,
and nature. This course explores the architecture and interiors
of his 70-year career, including Prairie, Textile Block, Usonian,
and other styles. It also explores the stories behind his bold,
sometimes controversial, but always visionary structures that
changed American architecture.
