Photographing Frank Lloyd Wright, a lensman sets out to capture every project
Andrew Pielage dreams of shooting all 531 Wright buildings still standing When Phoenix-based photographer Andrew Pielage came to Los Angeles last week to photograph two of Frank Lloyd Wright?s famous California designs, the Hollyhock House and the Ennis House, he found the work came naturally. A student of desert topography and the outdoors, Pielage often compares Wright?s work to the inspiring landscapes that gave him his start, and takes similar approaches to covering and capturing his home and buildings.
?When I go through his homes, I look for intimate views and tiny details that people often miss when they look at the whole picture,? he told Curbed. ?Touring these properties, where the floor is as exciting as the ceiling, has changed how I do my photography. I often switch to landscape mode and capture the floor and furniture in one shot, then take a photo of the ceiling, then stack them up in Photoshop to provide the entire view.? Pielage?s trip, documented on Instagram, was the latest excursion in an ongoing quest to photograph all of Wright?s work. The former nature photographer has made plenty of headway, but he?s still a lot closer to the starting line, having shot 52 of the architect?s 531 projects around the world, beginning with Taliesin West in 2011. The recently demolished Lockridge Medical Center would have been number 532.
