Realizations of Usonia celebrates the architectural legacy of Frank Lloyd Wright, the quintessential American architect, in Westchester County. The manifestations of his architectural creativity are visible locally both in his own work and in that of several of his apprentices, most notably David Henken, Edgar Tafel, and Eleanore Pettersen.
As our exhibition illustrates, these manifestations sometime provide interesting contrasts of intent and scale. Wright’s spacious Hoffman-Landau house in Rye, for instance, differs markedly from his more modest Usonian houses in Pleasantville.
Evident in all of the domestic architecture that both he and the apprentices created, however, is the overarching belief in the primacy of ”organic architecture,” in which, as Wright wrote in 1935, “the ground itself predetermines all features; the climate modifies them; available means limit them; function shapes them.
