“The mother art is architecture.
Without an architecture of our own we have no soul of our own civilization.”
-Frank Lloyd Wright: 1867-1959 (American Architect and Writer, the most abundantly creative genius of American architecture. His Prairie style became the basis of 20th century residential design in the United States)
__________
"...Architecture does what no other art can do: All other art forms recreate some portion of the world - a single human figure, or a two-dimensional scene on a canvas. Only architecture can create a total environment, one that literally surrounds the viewer.
Architecture creates a man-made, idealized world - an environment created by the architect to fit the kind of life he sees as proper to man.
Architecture conveys a view of man indirectly, not by projecting an image of man himself [as sculpture, painting and literature do] but by projecting a proper environment for man to live in."
-Sherri Tracinski -The Intellectual Activist, April 1998
