Synopsis
This book celebrates the Guggenheim from its inception to the present. In a highly informative essay, Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer, Vice President and Director of the Frank Lloyd Wright Archives, traces an odyssey that began in 1943 with a letter imploring Wright to build a "temple of spirit" for a small museum of non-objective paintings. The project endured delays and upsets for sixteen years before construction was completed in 1959, only months after Wright's death. After a major restoration and expansion project, completed in 1992, the architect's original vision has now truly been fulfilled. This beautiful volume also includes fascinating photographs taken during the museum's construction, a portfolio of photographs interpreting Wright's structure as a work of art, and images of exhibition installations within the newly restored building.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. "Dit boek viert de geschiedenis van het Guggenheim vanaf de oprichting tot nu. In een zeer informatief essay schetst Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer, vicepresident en directeur van het Frank Lloyd Wright Archief, een odyssee die begon in 1943 met een korte waarin hij Wright klaagde een 'tempel van de geest' te bouwen voor een klein museum met abstracte schilderijen. Het project kende zestien jaar lang en tegenslagen voordat de bouw in 1959 voltooid was, slechts enkele maanden na Wrights dood. Na een grote restauratie en uitbreiding, die in 1992 werd afgerond, is de oorspronkelijke visie van de architect nu werkelijk verwezenlijkt. Dit prachtige boek bevat ook fascinerende foto's die tijdens de bouw van het museum zijn genomen, een portfolio met foto's die Wrights ontwerp als kunstwerk voltooid, en afbeeldingen van tentoonstellingsinstallaties in het recent gerestaureerde gebouw. --Boekflaptekst.
