Book Wright Panorama

Download or read book Wright Panorama written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wright Panorama amplifies the artistry of Frank Lloyd Wright's architecture with expanse. In the more than 140 Tom Schiff panoramic photographs contained in Wright Panorama, Schiff reveals nearly eighty extant buildings in Wright's oeuvre from a unique perspective. Wright Panorama exhibits the great architect's prolific, varied, and iconic body of work, pulling from it a new shape and offering it renewed appeal. Eric Lloyd Wright's compelling foreword to Wright Panorama introduces Tom Schiff and four noteworthy Frank Lloyd Wright scholarsCara Armstrong, Scott W. Perkins, Margo Stipe, and Marta Wojcik. Since Wright's architecture embraced his strong belief in and respect for Nature, these scholars draw from this and contribute essays from a new nature-centric perspective. They further our understanding of the ways each of the natural elementsearth, air, fire, and water influences Wright's life and work. In addition, these four essays utilize Schiff 's images to more fully illustrate the involvement of the natural elements on Wright's organic architecture. In his preface to Wright Panorama, Schiff conveys his desire to acknowledge the "true" as well as extend our framework of seeing, of vision. Schiff likes that his panoramic photography is "true to the landscape as seen by the naked eye" and is both "expansive" and "challenging." He sees the resulting panoramic image in Wright Panorama as "a unique way to see Frank Lloyd Wright's interiors and exteriors, from all vantage points, in one image." Wright Panorama is a continual discovery: A new way of viewing, a new way of discovering the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canadian Graphic: Picturing Life Narratives presents critical essays on contemporary Canadian cartoonists working in graphic life narrative, from confession to memoir to biography. The contributors draw on literary theory, visual studies, and cultural history to show how Canadian cartoonists have become so prominent in the international market for comic books based on real-life experiences. The essays explore the visual styles and storytelling techniques of Canadian cartoonists, as well as their shared concern with the spectacular vulnerability of the self. Canadian Graphic also considers the role of graphic life narratives in reimagining the national past, including Indigenous–settler relations, both world wars, and Quebec’s Quiet Revolution. Contributors use a range of approaches to analyze the political, aesthetic, and narrative tensions in these works between self and other, memory and history, individual and collective. An original contribution to the study of auto/biography, alternative comics, and Canadian print culture, Canadian Graphic proposes new ways of reading the intersection of comics and auto/ biography both within and across national boundaries.

Book Wright and New York

Download or read book Wright and New York written by Anthony Alofsin and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An “immensely valuable” dual biography of the iconic American architect and the city that transformed his career in the early twentieth century (Francis Morrone, New Criterion). Frank Lloyd Wright took his first major trip to New York in 1909, fleeing a failed marriage and artistic stagnation. He returned a decade later, his personal life and architectural career again in crisis. Booming 1920s New York served as a refuge, but it also challenged him and resurrected his career. The city connected Wright with important clients and commissions that would harness his creative energy and define his role in modern architecture, even as the stock market crash took its toll on his benefactors. Anthony Alofsin has broken new ground by mining the Wright archives held by Columbia University and the Museum of Modern Art. His foundational research provides a crucial and innovative understanding of Wright’s life, his career, and the conditions that enabled his success. The result is at once a stunning biography and a glittering portrait of early twentieth-century Manhattan.

Book Richard Wright in a Post Racial Imaginary

Download or read book Richard Wright in a Post Racial Imaginary written by Alice Craven and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-07-31 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In African American fiction, Richard Wright was one of the most significant and influential authors of the twentieth century. Richard Wright in a Post-Racial America analyses Wright's work in relation to contemporary racial and social issues, bringing voices of established and emergent Wright scholars into dialogue with each other. The essays in this volume show how Wright's best work asks central questions about national alienation as well as about international belonging and the trans-national gaze. Race is here assumed as a superimposed category, rather than a biological reality, in keeping with recent trends in African-American studies. Wright's fiction and almost all of his non-fiction lift beyond the mainstays of African-American culture to explore the potentialities and limits of black trans-nationalism. Wright's trans-native status, his perpetual "outsidedness" mixed with the "essential humanness" of his activist and literary efforts are at the core of the innovative approaches to his work included here.
