Apprentice at Taliesin

A Personal Experience in the School of Frank Lloyd Wright

Francesco Santoro tells, thirty years later, the story of his apprenticeship in the Taliesin Fellowship, founded by Frank Lloyd Wright. The volume summarizes the experiences made at Taliesin West in the Arizona desert and at Taliesin in the Wisconsin countryside and proves the validity of the learning by doing teaching method, experienced in the school of Frank Lloyd Wright in the same moment in which it ceases its activities, 88 years after its founding. The recent events, which have led to the crisis of the western economic and cultural model of development, demonstrate the relevance of Wright's message and the need to deepen his legacy.
