Frank Lloyd Wright: Between USA and Italy

This catalogue accompanies an exhibition of the same name from The Pinacoteca Giovanni e Marella Agnelli. Through photographs, objects, catalogues, lithographs and original designs, this exhibition explores Wright’s ideas about organic architecture from his first journey to Italy in 1910 to his last visit in 1951, emphasising his engagement with the Italian architectural discourse, urban planning, and landscapes.The catalogue, which follows the exhibition, is articulated into sections exploring the different building typologies – houses, museums, offices and skyscrapers – where such iconic works like Fallingwater and the Guggenheim Museum in New York are showcased alongside lesser-known projects.
