Major retrospective exhibition featuring nearly 400 archive objects opens in MoMA.

Frank Lloyd Wright is a name known beyond the architecture world—in a career spanning seven decades, he realized over 500 buildings, leaving a cultural footprint and architectural philosophy for generations to come. Marking the 150th anniversary of Wright’s birth, MoMA launched an exhibition on the view from June 12th to October 1st. Frank Lloyd Wright at 150: Unpacking the Archive includes architectural drawings, models, building fragments, films, print media, furniture and other objects that have rarely or never been exhibited.
