Learn about the Wright landscape in Lake Geneva presentation

By STAFF Thursday, July 12, 2012

LAKE GENEVA — Frank Lloyd Wright’s influence on architecture is undeniable, but did you know he also influenced landscape design?

Frank Landi, a Delavan resident, longtime teacher and owner of an extensive collection of photographs featuring Wright-designed buildings, will be giving a Power Point presentation that explores the philosophy and architecture of two of the 20th century’s preeminent landscape designers who were influenced by both Wright and Mies van der Rohe: Alfred Caldwell and Jens Jensen.

“Prairie Landscape Architecture” will be presented Wed., July 23 at 6:30 p.m. at the Lake Geneva Public Library, 918 W. Main St., Lake Geneva.

Landi has been a guest speaker at national, state and local architectural conferences.
