Explore This Exhibit Showcasing The Work Of Frank Lloyd Wright

A new exhibit at the Driehaus Museum opening October 25 showcases Frank Lloyd Wright’s work through the eyes of the leading photographers who documented his career. Covering his projects from 1900 to 1959, the widely published images in “Photographing Frank Lloyd Wright” helped increase his visibility and contributed to his fame.

Architectural photographers in the exhibition include Henry Fuermann and Sons, Julius Shulman, Hedrich-Blessing, Ezra Stoller, and Pedro E. Guerrero. Lesser-known photos of Wright’s work by Torkel Korling and Edmund Teske may prove a new discovery for many visitors.

Also on display at the exhibit, open through January 5, will be images by Wright, an amateur photographer himself, depicting daily life and activities at his family’s Hillside Home School in Wisconsin as well as artifacts like Wright’s own camera and a chair he designed. Alongside images of his interiors, they aptly demonstrate his concept of design unity.
