October 11, 2008-January 4, 2009 CATALOGUE NOTE Stephen Gray is widely regarded as one of the great pioneering collectors and connoisseurs in the field of American arts and crafts. In 1976, the acquisition of a weekend retreat in Columbia County, New York inspired him to assemble a collection of furnishings that were compatible with the architectural history of the area. He educated himself by diligently researching the original trade catalogues from the period, many of which he was later responsible for reprinting. With an emphasis on the earliest production years of Gustav Stickley, Stephen refined his collection over the last thirty years to represent the very best in furniture, lighting, ceramics, metalwork and woodcut prints. His collection was recently celebrated in the exhibition, At Home with Gustav Stickley: American Arts & Crafts from the Stephen Gray Collection, at the Wadsworth Atheneum, to whom he has gifted a significant portion of his collection. The majority of works presented here were exhibited in this venue.

Wright a vécu jusqu’à près de 90 ans et, approches tout au long de sa longue vie, l’architecte américain s’est cinq montré capable de se renouveler d’une manière specta- culaire. Plusieurs « styles » se partagent en effet l’œuvre : Wright, une première période presque Art nouveau, une deuxième Lloyd plus singulière et souvent considérée comme un peu énig- Frank matique, d’une ornementation encore plus foisonnante, / puis, enfin, une période délibérément moderne avec la Treiber production d’icônes de l’architecture, la Maison sur la cascade et le musée Guggenheim. La deuxième approche est consacrée au « côté Daniel Ruskin » de Wright. Le grand historien américain Henry-Russell Hitchcock a déclaré dans son Architecture : XIXe et XXe siècles que ce qui faisait la « profonde diffé- rence » entre Frank Lloyd Wright et Auguste Perret, un autre novateur quasiment de la même génération, était que 7 www.editionsparentheses.com www.editionsparentheses.com « l’un avait dans le sang la tradition du néogothique anglais exponentielle de notre environnement, c’est le point par — en bonne part due à ses lectures de Ruskin — tandis lequel les préoccupations de Wright sont étonnamment que l’autre ne l’avait pas ».

  • Auldbrass an Exclusive Dinner and Tour of Frank Lloyd Wright’S Only Plantation
    Auldbrass An exclusive dinner and tour of Frank Lloyd Wright’s only plantation. Saturday, March 10, 2018 • Yemassee, South Carolina A visit to Auldbrass Plantation, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1939, provides a singular Wright experience like no other. Beautifully restored by its owner, movie producer Joel Silver, the multi-building estate is a shining example of historic preservation at its finest. Located less than an hour from Savannah, Auldbrass is very rarely open to the public. Join the Frank Lloyd Wright Building Conservancy for a private guided tour of the estate fol- lowed by a gourmet dinner inside the main house. In the spirit of the South, chef Robert Volz will create a dinner featuring local ingredients paired with the world’s most sought-after bourbon, Pappy Van Winkle. “Pappy Van Winkle doesn’t advertise; they not only sell out each year but connoisseurs and collectors have been known to spend the night in front of their liquor store for the opportunity to purchase a bottle. This meal is being carefully thought out to showcase local Southern ingredients and to showcase this rare and exquisite bourbon,” says Volz. Please note: Due to the exclusive nature of this event we are not able to provide refunds for cancellations received after February 1 unless the reservation can be refilled. Tickets $1,700 each ($1,450 is tax deductible) Quantity Total Guest Name(s) Address Phone Email Mobile Phone For more information contact Payment Name (as it appears on card) event co-chair Larry Woodin Check enclosed (206.794.5276), or contact the Conservancy office.
