Guggenheim

"Form follows function- that has been misunderstood. Form and function should be one, joined in a spiritual union."
-Frank Lloyd Wright
Pleasant Saturday afternoon trek for Shake Shack led me past the Guggenheim
Howard Roark= Frank Lloyd Wright?
Or
Frank Lloyd Wright=Howard Wright?
Perhaps, Ayn Ran's biography Ayn Rand and the World She Made might shed some insight into this. Although... Wright was known to have a very interesting personal life- extramarital affairs and such (Loving Frank: one of the few books I've never finished)
  • TIME article on Ayn Rand's biography-> Fountainhead-> Ayn Rand and the World She Made-> Frank Lloyd Wright biography.
Another biography to add to the ever surmounting lists of books I must read.
See how it never ends!
