Lecturer: Mrs Anthea Streeter
Venue: Larruperz Centre
Frank Lloyd Wright is acknowledged as America’s greatest architect. This lecture examines his long career over 60 years, sampling the sheer variety of his works and versatility of his designs. Fallingwater, New York’s Guggenheim Museum and the Robie House in Chicago are well known, but we shall also look at some of his visionary works for the Living City (1958) still unbuilt, yet an encapsulation of Wright’s ideas for a modern utopia.
Mrs Streeter studied Fine Arts in London and Harvard Universities. There she became interested in 20th century architecture. She has taught on courses at Oxford and London Universities. She has also taught at the Country House Course.
