520 1 $a"Simultaneously excruciating and hurried in its execution, Frank Lloyd Wright, American Architect was not the show it was intended to be - "the show to end all shows," in Wright's ambitious phrase. Furthermore, the accompanying publication planned by the Museum (which commissioned essays from Alvar Aalto, Henry-Russell Hitchcock, Richard Neutra, Mies van der Rohe, and other leading members of the architectural community) hit a serious roadblock in Wright's objection to one essay in the book, after an incendiary exchange of correspondence, including the architect's threat to cancel the show, the book was shelved, in the sixty-odd years since, the essays that the Museum commissioned have remained in its files, most of them lost to public view. Now, for the first time in one volume, the Museum is publishing the entire surviving group, along with a full selection of the letters and telegrams between Wright, the Museum, and others detailing the face-off between the Museum and the architect. Accompanying these documents is an extensive essay by the noted Frank Lloyd Wright scholar Kathryn Smith, who provides a full account of the exhibition, both as it was and as it was intended to be - including an unrealized plan to erect one of Wright's Usonian Houses in the MoMA garden."--BOOK JACKET.
