‘our collaboration with spoke art is one of my favorite projects, because it exemplifies the creative ways the frank lloyd wright foundation is working to advance its mission,’ said vice president of communication and partnerships at the frank lloyd wright foundation, jeff goodman. ‘by asking this talented cadre of diverse artists to reinterpret wright’s designs in their own style, we are able to inspire new audiences to discover and embrace an architecture for better living. we know that more people will learn about the wright legacy through this show, and it will challenge them to make, in wright’s words, ‘world a better one for living in.’
