Join us for refreshments as we celebrate the opening of Art into Architecture: Frank Lloyd Wright, Archie Teater and Teater’s Knoll. Idaho is home to just one building designed by world-renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright: Teater’s Knoll, located on the edge of the Snake River. Teater’s Knoll also happens to be the only artist studio Wright designed that was actually built. This exhibition considers Teater’s Knoll within the larger context of Wright’s architectural practice and philosophy. It features architectural plans and photographs as well as a selection of paintings by the artist for whom Teater’s Knoll was designed, Archie Teater (1901–1978). An Idaho native, Teater was a prolific painter whose impressionistic landscape images and history paintings documented his experience of Idaho and the American West.
Exhibition on view Dec 1, 2017 – Jan 17, 2018.
