This volume focuses on the two major ideal projects, "Broadacre City" and "The Living City", designed by the American master during the 30s in response to the irremediable between modern city and country. The large "Broadacre City" model created by Wright was shown at the Rockefeller Centre in 1935 and became a point of reference for the American architect's subsequent projects. No model was ever made for "The Living City", but now, on the occasion of the exhibition, a plastic model has been executed according to F.L. Wright's plans and indications. The book edited by David De Long, a leading F.L. Wright expert, and featuring essays by Robert Clark, Jean Louis Cohen and Jean-Michael Desmond, analyses of over 100 works, both built and unbuilt, including the unpublished documentation of "The Living City" model and a number of studies devoted to sketches of interiors, as well as the city-planning activity of one of the major figures of 20th-century architecture.
