"Frank Loyd Wright - The Lost Years, 1910-1922 lays out the facts about Wright's lost decade. With the first complete access to Wright's archives by any scholar in over 40 years, the author reconstructs the first history of Wright's travels in Europe. In recovering this elusive period in Wright's development, he restores an important chapter to the history of modern architecture. Alofsin's investigations also introduce a new definition to the little-known work Wright produced during this period, which he describes as Wright's primitivist phase. He traces this influence in his art through Wright's explorations of primitivists sources, innovations in sculpture, and an intensification of the architect's use of ornament." Quantity Available: 1.
