Modernism at its finest. This guy created art, and most contemporary architects today owe tribute to this man for inspiration. Like myself, no one goes to school to study architecture without learning about FLW.
I love how he says: "I hope it was of some interest to whoever was listening, but I don't know..." It's a typical thinking of architects. The truth being spoken: architecture (I mean true architecture) wasn't of so much interest to the people in general (not like Hollywood anyway).
I'm amazed by the extent to which his buildings extend directly from his philosophy, but also unsurprised having studied many of his buildings before knowing Wright, the man. How few people are there in the world who love what they do - and find it so crucially important as Wright did. His ideas are simple to those who earnestly answer the call to "Know thyself" and find the truth within as Wright would say. ..But also depressingly out of reach to the many. Ron Paul Revolution!
@AdabelleQuintana Mike Wallace, sound familiar?,a fantastic historic reporter in his own right. Wright was always contriversal during his life. This interview only refelcts it,saying these things about religion in the 30's wasn't highly accepted. His ideas really were ahead of their time.
i had the opportunity to step into one of the many houses he design in madison wisconsin before i even knew who he was. I was so amazed how the house made me feel, it was truly amazing.
4:20 ive watched this several times and it is not till now that i realize frank was a reader of walt whitman. hahaha, this man is wonderful.
