Frank Lloyd Wright: The Lost Years, 1910-1922: A Study Of Influence Overview
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT: THE LOST YEARS, 1910-1922 is a landmark study that reconstructs Wright’s early travels to Europe, provides the definitive history of his famous Wasmuth publications, and introduces an experimental Primitivist phase in the architect’s work that followed his “First Golden Age.” Challenging conventional assumptions about influence, this pioneering work also reveals for the first time Wright’s interest in feminism that grew from his relationship with Mamah Borthwick, his doomed lover, and shows how contact with Europe in 1909-10 stimulated Wright to expand his design process and revolutionize his methods of making ornament. It reconstructs Wright’s travels in Europe and his return to America.Totally original and based on unpublished archival materials, this readable book is a landmark in studies on Frank Lloyd Wright and a significant contribution to the history of modern architecture.
