GOOD SON OF TALIESIN :: THE LIFE AND WORK OF ALLEN LAPE DAVISON

40 pages :: with over 50 images

This issue is a long-overdue monograph on the life and creative work of architect and Taliesin Apprentice, Allen Lape Davison.

Joining Taliesin in 1938, Frank Lloyd Wright soon saw that "Davy" was an especially talented delineator, responsible for the origination of the dramatic night scenes of several Wright projects. Davison also differentiated himself as a creative powerhouse with his "box projects" given to Mr. Wright for his birthday and for Christmas. As a TAA staff architect, Davy was responsible for designing more than a dozen residential projects over the next fifteen years until his death at Taliesin West on December 18, 1974.

This 40 page journal features an introductory biographical essay as well as scores of never-before-published drawings, photos, and artwork that feature Davy's remarkable creative genius.
