Exhibition curated by Paolo Bulletti

 Frank Lloyd Wright a Fiesole cento anni dopo, published by Giunti
SACI Design Area Head Paolo Bulletti, together with Roberta Bencini, is the curator of an exhibition dedicated to Frank Lloyd Wright and his stay in Fiesole 100 years ago. The exhibition, hosted in the rooms of the  Archaeological Museum in Fiesole will open on Thursday, June 17, and will run until the end of August. It examines some of the works designed after 1910, it presents drawings and documents, some of which are displayed in Italy for the first time, and analyzes the influence that Wright’s stay in Fiesole had on his architecture.

The exhibition contains drawings that Wright did during his stay in Fiesole - a guest at Villino Belvedere in Via Verdi – of a house that was never built in Fiesole.

A catalogue, published by Giunti, pays tribute to the famous architect’s stay in Fiesole 100 years ago. Curated by Paolo Bulletti, the graphic design is by SACI Graphic Design instructor Federico Cagnucci. The catalogue also includes papers by architects and experts in landscape architecture.
