Some sticker residue on back cover. This is dedicated to the memory of Edgar Kaufmann, Jr. This diminutive survey features all aspects of Wright's art, from lowslung Prairie houses to the dramatic, seminal Fallingwater, to larger projects such as his two homes, Taliesin and Taliesin West, culminating in that icon of modernism, New York's Guggenheim Museum. This satisfying volume is complete with drawings and rarely seen works from Wright's own Asian art collection. The contents include Introduction: America's Master Architect, Formative Years, Prairie Period, Japan and California, Regeneration and Renewal, Usonian Period, Late Works and Wright's Art Collection. Frank Lloyd Wright Sr. (June 8, 1867 April 9, 1959) was an American architect, designer, writer, and educator. He designed more than 1,000 structures over a creative period of 70 years. Wright played a key role in the architectural movements of the twentieth century, influencing architects worldwide through his works and mentoring hundreds of apprentices in his Taliesin Fellowship. Wright believed in designing in harmony with humanity and the environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture. This philosophy was exemplified in Fallingwater (1935), which has been called "the best all-time work of American architecture". Frank Lloyd Wright presents a stunning overview of the work of this towering American genius, encompassing the entirety of Wright's long and extraordinarily prolific career. From his earliest work, such as the Home and Studio in Oak Park, IL, of 1889, to the wonderfully evocative textile block houses of Los Angeles of the mid-1920s, to such seminal masterpieces as Fallingwater, of 1935, in the Pennsylvania wilderness, and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, of 1956, in New York, the book offers an extraordinarily abundant trove of architectural riches. Featuring more than a hundred discrete works, from the well known to the obscure, expertly discussed in the text of highly respected Wright scholar Kathryn Smith, Frank Lloyd Wright weaves a gorgeous tapestry that will engage the mind and delight the eye.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - THERE ARE PERFORMANCES YOU LEAVE.AND OTHERS THAT REFUSE TO LET YOU GO.New York, 1929. Beneath the glitter of Prohibition, a secret society of actors gathers to perform-no audience, no applause, only devotion.Thomas Barese never intended to return to the stage. But when a figure from his past draws him back, he is pulled into a private ritual: an enactment of Romeo and Juliet where roles are assigned without warning-and breaking character is unthinkable.The script is not a guide, but law.Shakespeare is not interpreted. He is enforced.As the performance deepens, past wounds resurface, and the boundary between self and role begins to erode.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - What happens when science looks backward-and belief looks nowhere at all Some questions begin in curiosity. Then they don't.Haunted by the violent death of his childhood friend and increasingly disillusioned with humanity, Father David Callaghan can no longer reconcile his vocation with his growing skepticism. He leaves his parish in a quiet Irish town and travels to the Kalahari Desert, drawn by a scientific discovery linking the San people to some of humanity's oldest known lineages-hoping that by looking backward, he might understand where the human story went wrong.But in the desert, certainty fractures.As tensions within the expedition deepen-driven by ambition, desire, and irreconcilable worldviews-a murder and a disappearance unravel its fragile order. Stranded in the wilderness with a young anthropologist and a San boy, David is forced into a struggle for survival no discipline can fully explain.What follows is not a search for answers, but a confrontation with their absence.Faced with loss, doubt, and the limits of both reason and belief, he must reckon with the question that brought him there: what remains of meaning when the story we tell about ourselves begins to collapse The Cost of Knowing is a literary novel where anthropology collides with faith-and where the pursuit of truth becomes inseparable from what it demands.…
