TALIESIN® FLOOR LAMP BY FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT, YAMAGIWA (1980)

$ 6,300
  • Description
    Cherry wood floor lamp from the Taliesin® series by Frank Lloyd Wright for the publisher Yamagiwa (1980)

    Edited in the 1980s, this sculptural floor lamp belongs to the TALIESIN® series designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Made of cherry wood, it unfolds around a central axis punctuated by ten light modules.
    Inspired by the play of light filtering through the foliage, Wright designed rectangular wooden volumes that enveloped the light source. Their layered arrangement composes a structure that is both architectural and organic, diffusing a subdued and changing clarity. More than a light fixture, it is a true sculpture of light, capable of transforming the space with elegance and poetry.

    Designer: Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959), a pioneer of organic architecture, is an essential figureof the twentieth century. He developed an “organic” vision of architecture, where buildings dialogue with their natural environment. His approach goes far beyond construction: he also imagines the furniture and lighting intended to inhabit his spaces, in a quest for global harmony. The TALIESIN® Series is a perfect illustration of this, combining functionality, formal beauty and luminous poetry. This name refers both to the estate-workshop that Wright founded in 1911 in Wisconsin and to a mythical figure of Welsh culture, a legendary poet of the sixth century.
