Book The Prairie School  Frank Lloyd Wright and His Midwest Contemporaries

Download or read book The Prairie School Frank Lloyd Wright and His Midwest Contemporaries written by Harold Allen Brooks and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most original and dynamic developments in American architecture, the Prairie School was a regional manifestation of the international revolt and reform that occurred in the visual arts during the early years of the twentieth century. Inspired by Louis Sullivan and given guidance and prominence by Frank Lloyd Wright, the members of the movement sought to achieve a fresh architectural expression. Their designs were characterized by precise, angular forms and highly sophisticated interior arrangements--an approach that proved immensely significant in residential architecture. In this book, the author discusses the entire phenomenon of the Prairie School, not just the masters but also the work of their contemporaries. Drawing on unpublished material and original documentation as well as on interviews, he assesses each architect's contribution and traces the course of the movement itself--how and why it came into existence, what it achieved, and what caused its abrupt end.
