Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few architects shaped the course of architectural history as dramatically as Frank Lloyd Wright. While Wright has long been the focus of scholarly debate, among his other many accomplishments during his long career he was also the author of key essays on design that have influenced generations of architects. This volume brings together the most important essays on and by Wright, providing both an illuminating study of one of the key figures of the 20th century, as well as an overview of the very principles that are at the foundation of great architecture. The editor of this volume, Robert McCarter, poured through all of the important scholarly work on the subject of Frank Lloyd Wright to select the highlights in research and reading. Each essay is illustrated with archival material. 'On and By Frank Lloyd Wright' contains fourteen analytical essays that use Wright's buildings as a means to understanding his complex creative process. Architect of many of the twentieth century's most important buildings, Wright largely remains an enigma today. Written by renowned architects and architectural historians, On and by Frank Lloyd Wright provides a unique and informed look at Wright's buildings from inception to completion, from his earliest works to his final masterpieces. With over four hundred images, including photographs, archival material, and diagrammatic analyses, this book provides a more complete understanding of Wright's work than previous studies. The final word comes from the master himself in a set of three essays in which Wright discusses his own architectural philosophies - a final lesson from this great American teacher.

Download or read book Wright for Wright written by Hugh Howard and published by Rizzoli International Publications. This book was released on 2001 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Wright for Wright is the first book to focus exclusively on the twenty houses and other structures Frank Lloyd Wright built for himself and his family. Free from the constraints and, in Wright's case, conflict of the client-architect relationship, these houses present Wright at his unfettered best: building and constantly renovating in the materials and locations that mattered to him most. Photographed for the first time in full-color panoramic shots by longtime Wright photographer Roger Straus, these shots capture the houses as part of landscape - the way Wright envisioned them." "During his lifetime, Wright built three residences for himself: the Home and Studio in suburban Oak Park, Illinois; Taliesin on family land in Spring Green, Wisconsin; and Taliesin West in the desert town of Scottsdale, Arizona. Treated as three distinct stages in a time-line of the architect's long and varied career, these houses constitute a kind of architectural biography, with all the important threads of Wright's life and philosophy interwoven, and in the case of Taliesin, punctuated by fire and even murder. But Wright for Wright looks beyond these houses to those that Wright designed for his sons David Wright and Robert Llewellyn Wright, and to the house he built for his cousin Richard Lloyd Jones. Wright for Wright also examines the structures Wright built for the Lloyd Joneses, such as Unity Chapel, and for his aunts Nell and Jane Lloyd Jones he built the Hillside Home School as well as the Romeo and Juliet Windmill. For his sister Jane Porter he built Tan-Y-Deri House, and for himself he built Midway Farm at Taliesin as well as the Music Pavilion at Taliesin West."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Synopsis The Wright Brothers for Kids by : Mary Kay Carson
Download or read book The Wright Brothers for Kids written by Mary Kay Carson and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2003-05-01 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This activity book tells the amazing true story of how two bicycle-making brothers from Ohio, with no more than high-school educations, accomplished a feat that forever changed the world. At a time when most people still hadn’t ridden in an automobile, Wilbur and Orville Wright built the first powered, heavier-than-air flying machine. Woven throughout the heartwarming story of the two brothers are activities that highlight their ingenuity and problem-solving abilities as they overcame many obstacles to achieve controlled flight. The four forces of flight—lift, thrust, gravity, and drag—and how the Wright brothers mastered them are explained in clear, simple text. Activities include making a Chinese flying top, building a kite, bird watching, and designing a paper glider, and culminate with an activity in which readers build a rubber-band-powered flyer. Included are photographs just released from the Wright brothers’ personal collection, along with diagrams and illustrations. The history of human flight and its pioneers, a time line, and a complete resource section for students are also provided.

Book Synopsis How to Think Like Frank Lloyd Wright by : Catherine Teegarden
Download or read book How to Think Like Frank Lloyd Wright written by Catherine Teegarden and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-08-31 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This amazing book offers a fascinating look into Frank Lloyd Wright's creative process--and offers simple suggestions and activities for unleashing your own imagination Frank Lloyd Wright looked to nature for inspiration. "Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature. It will never fail you," he famously said. It is "necessary to learn from trees, flowers, shells--objects which contain truths of form following function." How to Think Like Frank Lloyd Wright takes these lessons to heart, transforming this notion into practical exercises that empower you to create original patterns, designs, drawings, structures, and more. Using items found in nature--such as leaves, insects, seashells--and looking at Wright's own sketches, abstractions, and finished works, this book offers a template for aspiring artists and architects to emulate his creative process. Projects such as designing a stained glass window to sketching houses for different habitats, to creating graphics inspired by nature will encourage artists to look at the world in a whole new way This unique exploration of some of Frank Lloyd Wright's most famous works--and the methodology behind them--is part history, part guided sketch book, and most importantly, the perfect tool to spark the imagination of the next generation of visionaries.

Book Synopsis Small Acts of Disappearance by : Fiona Wright
Download or read book Small Acts of Disappearance written by Fiona Wright and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small Acts of Disappearance is a collection of ten essays that describes the author's affliction with an eating disorder which begins in high school, and escalates into life-threatening anorexia over the next ten years. Fiona Wright is a highly regarded poet and critic, and her account of her illness is informed by a keen sense of its contradictions and deceptions, and by an awareness of the empowering effects of hunger, which is unsparing in its consideration of the author's own actions and motivations. The essays offer perspectives on the eating disorder at different stages in Wright's life, at university, where she finds herself in a radically different social world to the one she grew up in, in Sri Lanka as a fledgling journalist, in Germany as a young writer, in her hospital treatments back in Sydney. They combine research, travel writing, memoir, and literary discussions of how writers like Christina Stead, Carmel Bird, Tim Winton, John Berryman and Louise Gluck deal with anorexia and addiction; together with accounts of family life, and detailed and humorous views of hunger-induced situations of the kind that are so compelling in Wright's poetry.
