Art Talk: Wright lecture is March 11. Why does public still care?

FLWRIGHT_1954.jpgThe 2008 Wright Lecture series at Monona Terrace Community and Convention Center, One John Nolen Drive, in Madison, will continue with Bob Greenstreet, Dean of the School of Architecture and Urban Planning at UW Milwaukee.

The event will take place on Tuesday, March 11, in the Lecture Hall of the Wright-designed Monona Terrace. Doors to the theater will open at 6:45 p.m. and seating is available on a first come, first served basis.

Greenstreet will discuss some of the planning and design issues facing the City of Milwaukee and the creative solutions that have resulted as part of the relationship between the University and the City.

The Wright Lecture Series is sponsored by Monona Terrace, the Southwest Wisconsin Chapter of AIA (American Institute of Architects) and Frank Lloyd Wright Wisconsin.

Parking is available in the Monona Terrace parking ramp for $3.

For information, call (608) 261-4000, TTY (608) 261-4150 or visit http://communityevents.mononaterrace.com.

Does anyone out there think Wright is being overexposed?

Or does the current bestselling novel about him, among other things, demonstrate that the well is far from dry?

What is it that keeps people interested in Frank Lloyd Wright (shown above in 1954)?

The work? Or the man?

Or both?
