Frank Lloyd Wright: The Crowning Decade, 1949-1959

Overview

In the last ten years of his life, Frank Lloyd Wright became a respected public figure honored throughout the world. The shift from maverick to honoree changed his architecture, which became simpler and more sensuous. This decade also saw an incredible increase in production from Wright. Between the ages of 82 and 92, he designed the Price Tower, the Beth Shalom Synagogue, the Dallas Theater Center, the Guggenheim Museum, and at the time of his death, there were 86 projects in various stages of completion in the drafting room. The Crowning Decade views Wright's final years from five perspectives: as Wright saw himself; as the outside world saw him; as he appears in the private memoirs of Olgivanna Lloyd Wright; as his daughter, Iovanna Wright, saw him; and in a composite portrait by his Taliesin Fellows.
