Frank L. Wright and the Architects of Steinway Hall - by Stuart Cohen (Paperback)

Frank Lloyd Wright and the Architects of Steinway Hall is a groundbreaking book that challenges the traditional narrative of artistic collaboration in architectural history.

Through a side-by-side comparison of projects designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and his colleagues, Dwight Perkins, Robert Spencer, and Myron Hunt, this book reveals the extent to which they collaborated on their designs and developed ideas that would impact a half-century of architectural design. The book provides a detailed analysis of the projects designed by these young architects in Steinway Hall, including overlapping ideas, design similarities, and an examination of their subsequent work.

The author argues that these men formed a creative "collaborative circle" of friends who jointly developed the ideas underlying their work. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of architecture, artistic collaboration, and the development of modern design movements.

With its meticulous research and thorough documentation, Frank Lloyd Wright and the Architects of Steinway Hall provides a fresh perspective on the work of one of America's most famous architects and challenges traditional notions of individual genius in creative fields.
