Offered here is an exceptional original two-page typed letter signed by Frank Lloyd Wright, dated December 13, 1928, written from his famed home and studio, Taliesin, in Spring Green, Wisconsin. The letter is addressed to noted architect and planner Albert W. Kelsey, founder and first president of the Architectural League of America and an important figure in early twentieth-century American architecture. Rather than routine correspondence, this is a substantial philosophical discussion in which Wright reflects on American architecture, his admiration for his mentor Louis Sullivan, and his long-standing opposition to architectural competitions. Wright famously writes that he has “never entered a competition” and describes them as producing merely an “average of averages, ” arguing that truly original architecture cannot emerge from such contests. Throughout the letter Wright discusses the future of American architecture, expresses concern that the ideals he and Sullivan championed were becoming merely “a French fashion, ” and invites Kelsey to visit him at Taliesin.
