The Living Legacy of Frank Lloyd Wright TALIESIN TheLivingLegacy FELLOWS ® ofFrankLloydWright o carry our mission onward we launch a search for stories NEWSLETTER and pictures of the work of former apprentices. Since our first NUMBER 10 JANUARY 15, 2003 Tissue nearly three years ago we have published built designs by Taliesin Fellows to show our readers how the inspiration of Frank Lloyd Wright is being interpreted and carried forward by his former apprentices. Contrary to views of some former apprentices this work is sometimes fresh and inspiring in its own right and deserves a wider audience— though it appears that some of a discerning public are aware, in general there is little interest in the work of Wright’s followers. Certainly, it is has been said, publication of their work “would not sell magazines or books”. Eric Lloyd Wright We have long maintained that the legacy of Wright is not only the great buildings and designs he created during the 70 years of his career, but there is a living legacy as well: the work of gifted former apprentices. Wright for whatever reason, seemed somewhat reluctant during his days of prodi- gious production to acknowledge the work of former apprentices though some attained great fame following their days at Taliesin. Among Aaron Green these are John Lautner and Aaron Green among the early apprentices and later, E. Fay Jones who followed Wright as recipient of the gold medal of the American Institute of Archi- tects. Perhaps, by example, perhaps inadvert- ently, Wright inspired a sort of cult of individual- ity. And many who followed have practiced suc- cessfully and alone as individualists in the further- Richard Keding ing of organic architecture. Myron Marty, an architectural historian, has published one volume featuring the work of Wright’s successors focussing particu- larly on the work of the Taliesin Fellowship, the Taliesin Architects Lim- ited. He is working on a new volume, which will picture the accomplishments of some of the vast number of former apprentices. Taliesin itself and the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture have in some way dis- Milton Stricker tanced themselves from the hundreds of former ap- prentices. There has been occasional inclusion of these designers and architects billed as ‘“Fellowship Re- unions” in twice-a-decade events at Spring Green and at Scottsdale Taliesin West. Earl Nisbet Although our Newsletter has limited space for real in-depth coverage of the work of former apprentices, we believe our readers and those they influence can be inspired with presentations of outstanding work. In- depth reporting can be left to a rebirth of the Journal of the Taliesin Fellows which through some 26 issues covered the work of former apprentices with a strong archival inter- est in the Wright connection. We call attention here to a few of our earlier efforts in pre- senting the designs of several former apprentices as well as an en- gaging future project from the Midglen Studio. We seek wider cov- erage to expand this interest. The former apprentices are indeed the living legacy of our mentor, who for many years personally chose them to be a part of the Taliesin experience.

Frank Lloyd Wright From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Frank Lloyd Wright (born Frank Lincoln Wright, June 8, 1867 – April 9, Frank Lloyd Wright 1959) was an American architect, interior designer, writer and educator, who designed more than 1000 structures and completed 532 works. Wright believed in designing structures which were in harmony with humanity and its environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture. This philosophy was best exemplified by his design for Fallingwater (1935), which has been called "the best all-time work of American architecture".[1] Wright was a leader of the Prairie School movement of architecture and developed the concept of the Usonian home, his unique vision for urban planning in the United States. His work includes original and innovative examples of many different building types, including offices, churches, schools, Born Frank Lincoln Wright skyscrapers, hotels, and museums.

  • Modern Domestic Architcture in and Around Ithaca, Ny: the “Fallingwaters” of Raymond Viner Hall
    MODERN DOMESTIC ARCHITCTURE IN AND AROUND ITHACA, NY: THE “FALLINGWATERS” OF RAYMOND VINER HALL A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Mahyar Hadighi January 2014 © 2014 Mahyar Hadighi ABSTRACT This research examines the role of Modern architecture in shaping the American dream through the work of a particular architect, Raymond Viner Hall, a Frank Lloyd Wright follower, in Ithaca, NY. Modernists’ ideas and Modern architecture played significant roles in the twentieth century post-depression urban history. Although the historic part of historic preservation does not commonly refer to twentieth century architecture, mid-century Modern architecture is an important part of the history and its preservation is important. Many of these mid-century Modern examples have already been destroyed, mainly because of lack of documentation, lack of general public knowledge, and lack of activity of advocacy groups and preservationists. Attention to the recent past history of Ithaca, New York, which is home of Cornell University and the region this research survey focuses on, is similarly not at the level it should be. Thus, in an attempt to begin to remedy this oversight, and in the capacity of a historic preservation-planning student at Cornell (with a background in architecture), a survey documenting the Modern architecture of the area was conducted. In the process of studying the significant recent history of Ithaca, a very interesting local adaptation of Wrightian architecture was discovered: the projects of Raymond Viner Hall (1908-1981), a semi-local Pennsylvanian architect, who was a Frank Lloyd Wright follower and son of the chief builder of Fallingwater.
